Yeah and if we eliminate animal enterprises altogether it would be much better. Go vegan.

I thought this kind of inflammatory behaviour would stay on reddit, guess I was wrong about that

You’re only creating your own devide, live and let live and do not harass others online

Your not going to convert everyone to vеgаnism and trying to force that won’t help you at all

People who choose to become vegan will go vegan and people who choose not to wont

People need to understand that we’re all people of different backgrounds and a better (solarpunk) future has room for all of them

So tired of hearing these stupid arguments. I doubt you are any of those communities and when was the last time any serious vegans spent their time telling people living in poverty to stop subsistence hunting in the wilderness. But keep it up with your sad little cognitive dissonance protecting whataboutism and convenient moral relevatism.

The amount of change we would all need to do is so immense I don’t think it’s fathomable.

Me choosing not to eat meat even if I stopped completely and went vegan would not do a damn thing.

I don’t believe the problem is a matter of personal choices, it’s a much larger scale.

You and all your friends becoming vegan doesn’t do shit. It’s laughable.

People engage in individual action as a means of demonstrating that collective action is possible. Nobody is expecting individual action on its own to suffice; it takes changing the rules of society so that everybody is doing the right thing.

Livestock is 6% of global emissions

Notice how the title is about land use emissions. That’s about changes in how land is used, not overall ememissions.

Deforestation is done to clear land tongrow animal feed more than anything else. It’s not just methane from the cattle.

'Livestock’ emissions here include direct emissions from livestock only – they do not consider impacts of land use change for pasture or animal feed.

Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
