One of the thorniest problems of the 21st century is how to get people to eat less meat. A new poll conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that most U.S. adults said they eat meat at least several times a week.
What good is it going to do for 1-10% of the world population to give up meat? The rich can burn fossil fuels like they’re a moderate sized nation, but there’s only so much meat a person can eat. Considering that a large portion of global emissions come from eating meat, especially red meat, this is something that actually does make sense for the average person to do. Even more so when you consider the non-climate change advantages of mass reduction in meat eating, like freeing up the amount of land dedicated to raising meat animals or feed for meat animals.

If they got rid of all that tomorrow the amount of meat eaten globally still would not be sustainable and would still use over 1/3rd of all habitable land on earth. Rich people are not the only people who eat meat.
Yes, but if I juat blame rich people for all ny problems, then I can feel smug while changing nothing
Are you saying you’re not going to make changes until the rich do? Otherwise I don’t understand the point of these comments.
