    No, it will increase the production costs and reduce the profitability of meat products.

    Going vegan is the best thing you can do for the environment as an individual. As animal agriculture causes at least 14.5% of emissions, uses up 75% more land and wastes ungodly amounts of water.

    A whole foods plant-based will reduce your risk from chronic diseases and lengthen your life expectancy.

    Do the 30 day vegan challenge and do better for yourself and the environment:

      I feel like you missed the part of my message where I said it wasn’t realistic. You are correct that if we could convince a large portion of the population to switch it would reduce profits and ultimately cause the industry to scale down. The entire point of my message was that that’s not going to happen no matter how much you talk about how good it is no matter how many facts you give you are simply not going to get a majority of the population to give up or even meaningfully reduce their meat consumption.

      So instead of wasting your time spending your wheels on something that will never happen you could be doing something more productive that actually has a chance of succeeding.

        A bunch of rubbish veganism is growing all around the world and yet you’re here arrogantly saying that things won’t change because you think you somehow know everything.
