As negotiations get underway at COP28, we compiled a list of the leading research documenting the connection between meat and greenhouse gas emissions.
I always like fact backup in response to zealous vegan nonsense. I wonder if any of them will notice/read since you replied to me. I thikn they’re tunnel-vision on me at this point.
Though, you might or might not have realized that in your reply to me, you quoted things I had previously quoted from another person. You’re on my side (and I’m cool with that).
I think you overestimate many of the people fighting on the vegan side of arguments these days ;)
And I mean that only half tongue-in-cheek. Too often, people who should be smart enough to know better put on blinders because “I love animals and don’t want you eating them” mashes up with “what’s actually good or bad for the environment and climate”
We absolutely should be making improvements to farming to continue to scale. Unlimited amounts of chicken or pork are indefinitely sustainable at the low-low price of perhaps making animal treatment vs climate decisions that might be difficult for some. I swear they hold on to the whole vegan thing because sometimes the most climate-friendly choice is a little less humane-seeming to some people.
>75% of soy crop is fed to animals.
85% of the global soy crop is pressed for oil. the vast majority of soy fed to livestock is a byproduct of that process
Thank you :)

… I replied to the wrong person. oh well. anyone reading should be able to figure out what’s happening.
