    In this thread: Shit loads of people who will say they care about the climate crisis on one day, then say they don’t care about the 18.5% of global carbon emissions that the meat industry causes the next day because they can’t get over the decade worth of anti-veganism jokes and memes that they’ve constantly repeated uncritically.

    Individual habits MUST be changed to solve this part of the problem, there is literally no way around that. Getting triggered and writing screeds because you’ve spent decades getting caught up in hate over food choices won’t stop the planet burning.

      On the other hand, we could always just wait for the rich to tighten meat production and put us all on nutri-loaf.

        Ahh yes we can just wait for the rich to willingly reduce their profits. I’m sure that will come before the heat death of the planet.

          Don’t worry, such a change would be accompanied by significant increases in the price of nutri-loaf.
