If this is something you feel strongly about, then please stop eating factory farmed meat and animal products if you havent already. It is something you personally can actually do. It helps, and it will genuinely make you feel better. You may not have much power, but using the power you do have to help the team you claim to be on instead of the other team is a massive step forward.
no, it doesnt. despite the existence of vegans, meat production increases every year, year over year.
No it doesn't, Commie
you're cherrypicking.

What is your point?
my point is that buying meat (or not) has no impact on the environment.
water and land aren't going anywhere. and all of agriculture is only about 20% of our emissions, and since we need to eat, we should be looking at other methods of saving the environment.
calling me names doesn't change whether what i'm saying is true.
i never said that. i said that buying beans doesn't change anything.
