Would you eat less meat to save the world ?

[Cormac135]

Well it seems in order to save the world we've got to cut back drastically on the meat and start chomping down on grass, well salad and veg.

Will you be joining me on cutting back your meat intake ?

 

[Kahaih]

I feel confident that I have seen enough of the world to make an informed decision.

My decision is no.

 

[HoodedRat]

I haven't eaten meat or fish since I was a kid.

I'm Sicilian by heritage.

While I like my beef and pork, I also eat pasta and lots of vegetables.

I follow the old Catholic tradition of meatless Fridays all year long because my parents did.

If asked to give up another day of meat, why not? there are still so many other choices!

 

[TickTockMan]

No and how would that save the world?

 

[Rickrock]

I find it difficult to believe that my cutting back on meat would have much effect on the world's problems. I would be reluctant to reduce my meat intake, however, it might be possible that I might reduce some of the meat that I eat.

I'm eating less meat to save my heart and my waist line.

 

[theworldwithout]

I'd cut back on certain meats, beef and pork, but I'd most likely eat the same amount or more of chicken and fish if I did so.

 

[sixthson]

Does it include man meat?

 

[Gussss]

I'm Southern, and we batter, bread, and fry meat most of you would never imagine eating.

So, No.

But eating more veggies would help our farmers during this Tariff war with China, so go right ahead.

Do you mean ANY animal meat, such as beef, chicken or fish. Typically, fowl is not considered meat, although it sure tastes like meat. I eat very little red meat, mostly chicken. Occasionally fish.
To save the next generation, would I eat less if I KNEW it would save them? YES.

I've read about the greenhouse emissions from the livestock growers, since they use machines for their animals. (Another source of toxins: what they put INTO the animal food to fatten them.)

Will YOU stop drinking bottled water, which is filled with micro plastics, tot he point where tap water has 4,000 units of micro plastics, but bottled water has 90,000 units? Not good that we're also now breathing plastics. No wonder 13 year old are dying in the summer under a hot sun: they're being poisoned by water they drink and foot they eat. And their immune systems clearly can't cope. Those of us who are older got a break: we had out air as a child 50-60 years ago, (and without plastic in the water supply, food, and oh - did I mention the air itself? Yes, we're breathing micro plastics.
So, which'll kill us first: breathing micro plastics or not eating meat? I'm opting for number 1, since we breath every 20 seconds, and drink water several times a day. That'll do us in faster than the climate change.

Like asking a miser whether he would spend less to save the world.

I'm not a vegan because, generally, I'm not a dogmatic enough person... yet

 

[Vannie]

I'm afraid I'm releasing too much methane and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from eating vegetables.

^ You're not doing it right.

You could be energetically self-sufficient.

 

[rareboy]

I don't eat a lot of meat, so sure.
