As negotiations get underway at COP28, we compiled a list of the leading research documenting the connection between meat and greenhouse gas emissions.
This attitude is why meat eaters will tell you to shut the fuck up when you bring up the subject. Your statement is reductive, dismissive, and pretentious to the point that you would be more convincing by not saying anything at all.
It does say that but if you can’t add some additional context or express it in a way that will be better received by others then you’re making things worse by being an elitist prick about it. No one wants to team up with that guy. However, if stroking your ego is more important to you than solving the actual problem then by all means, carry on.
You don’t know anything about how I live my life and I don’t know much about you but I do know that if you’re anything like this to people in real life then most fucking hate listening to you talk. You latched on to one thing you were probably already doing for other reasons and are now acting like the savior of the planet over it despite the fact that even being in a position to respond to my messages puts your carbon footprint in the top 80% globally. Abstaining from meat isn’t going to save the world, which is something you would know if you actually cared about the environment beyond the issue’s ability to let you virtue signal at strangers on the internet, but it’s probably hard to see much of anything from so far up your own ass. Oh well, I’m sure that smugness will sustain you when the power shuts off and the grocery stores are empty.
we could power the planet with your cognitive dissonance. the article is right there. but you wanna talk about my personality and how your feelings are making you cry a little bit.
Whats wrong with what they said? Eating meat is disproportionately more environmentally damaging than a plant based diet. Going vegan absolutely has a positive environmental impact so if you do want to help, go vegan. The fault is absolutely not on them if people read it and get annoyed because they don’t actually want to make a sacrifice they just want things to get better without any personal change on their part.
The article did a decent job of explaining that fact without giving off a holier-than-thou, savior complex vibe. Surely you can see why that is a better approach than shaming people, especially when it’s so easy to point out other ways in which a vegan might have a larger than necessary carbon footprint. The person I responded to is only interested in being smug, not educating people or genuine change. That’s not environmentalism it’s just a prime example of virtue signaling.

the article seems to imply that eating meat is harmful to the environment. you can make your own conclusions.
I’m sure you only eat meat from your uncles farm where the animals are treated like his family.

did the nasty vegan say something horrible to you? maybe just shove more bacon into your mouth while the world burns.
