They were after the pandemic, theres a big dropoff during covid but I didnt want to use it because obviously the causes weren’t regulation or vegans.
I was mainly pointing out that its possible for the rate of increase to decrease, although I understand I can’t prove its from a change in demand.
If there isnt proof for any of the solutions we’ve talked about why shouldn’t I just do all of them?
I would choose one that is provably effective. actually rescuing animals tangibly saves them from the agricultural system. everything else I can think of is the equivalent of hopes and prayers.
