- Comment on Vegans, vegetarians, fish-eaters and meat-eaters in the UK show discrepant environmental impacts 1 year ago:
Not to sound rude, but this feels like a waste of time for me. Emissions created by meat consumption are only a small percentage of the emissions released from a person that are unrelated to eating such as driving, for example. And if the lockdowns during the pandemic showed something, it was that there was no significant change in emissions worldwide, the reason being that a vast, vast majority of carbon or other greenhouse gas emissions come from large and often multinational corporations, so stop bothering with a minor part within a minor part of where global emissions come from and focus on the big picture! I think getting rid of 20% of global emissions is worth a lot more than getting rid of 0.02%, don’t you think?
