Plant-based protein sources still have a lower footprint than the lowest-impact meat products.

plant-based foods emit fewer greenhouse gases than meat and dairy, regardless of how they are produced.

      What the heck kind of Martin Luther King Honda Civic are you driving?

      Anyway, my point was that you should set reasonable goals for yourself and celebrate them, because they are good. Like I’m a vegetarian, and I’m trying to reduce my milk product consumption. It’s all part of living a happy, healthy life, not being part of negative cycles or thought processes.

          So you don’t actually give a fuck and just want to continue as usual while shouting “corporations tho!”

          Why not do what’s right without having it forced on you by regulation?

              You don’t think directly funding animal abuse and climate destruction is wrong?

                  That’s a pretty fucked stance to have

          How would you feel as the price of steak and milk goes up? Would you vote to artificially limit prices? Would you vote to give corporations which make meat more money so they could give you cheaper beef? Heck, those prices are already subsidised by the government. Would you vote to remove those subsidies?

              So two follow up questions:

              • If you think the subsidies are bad, what if a party wanted to put on extra taxes due to carbon emissions? Would you vote for them?
              • If so, won’t it be harder to break the habit when you’re effectively priced out rather than earlier?
