    Oh you’re so god now saying “this will happen or this will never happen” bunch of arrogant rubbish.

    You’re lying because you don’t want it to change you want to keep eating meat while the planet gets destroyed for your selfish desires. As they’re cutting down the Amazon for beef farms.

    Research has shown that meat consumption is going down and the vegan population is rapidly growing so your stance is wrong.

      I do love your assumptions. I actually use meat pretty sparingly. My diet mostly consists of random slow cooker meals made with Brussel sprouts, broccoli, asparagus, beans(of various types), potatoes, rice and ofc spinach. In various combinations not allmat once ofc.

      It’s easy to make because you literally just toss it into the slow cooker for 8 hrs and walk away and it’s way cheaper per meal than with meat. Chase with bread, salad, or yogurt depending on your mood.

      My personal diet doesn’t change reality, there is a significant enough portion of the population that will never even consider dropping meat to keep meat production going strong. I’d rather spend my effort on trying to reduce electrical waste. Like electric dryers for example. Wildly wasteful. Really good high quality heat pump dryers that are basically just as fast exist and they use 1/4 the amount of power. I’ve already talked to several people into getting them, 5 to be more exact. Even just those 5 is a significant chunk of power standard resistive electric are insanely inefficient.

      I’ve also been attempting to convince people to go with chest refrigerators. AKA chest freezers but at fridge temperatures as they too will use a fraction of the power. They also don’t lose the entirety of their cold every time you open the door causing them to cycle again. But even that is a hard sell, it’s a little less convenient requires more floor space and makes it so people can’t just throw multiple months worth of random stuff in their fridge and forget about it as it piles up on shelfs. Which is enough to turn a lot of people off the idea
