you can’t prove a counterfactual. but it is a fact that vegans exist, and the chart continues to rise.

How many would have to be vegan before youll admit it would affect the supply of meat? 75%? 90%? Is there just a crossover point for you or you think if noone ate meat that graph would still go up?

i honestly don’t know. i do know vegans exist, and i suspect there are more now than ever, but the line still goes up.

Its pretty minor. The real gains are countries setting their national policy around diets that are half or more plant based. That sends a clear message about what role meat should have in a healthy diet, and will affect the most people.
You could call that regulation I suppose.

i have no reason to believe that the production of meat will decrease due to the nordic dietary guidelines. keep me posted, though.
