Have you tried beyond burgers they taste just like the real thing and so humanity can skip the cruelty of lining cows in a narrow chute and slaughtering them unceremoniously.
Same goes for processed plant based products if you want healthy tasty meals there’s plenty of whole food planted based recipes out there for you to try.
I can’t get the iron I need from plants alone. Plant-based iron has very low bioavailability. I will always eat meat for health reasons since iron deficiency runs in my family.
Well meat farms produce a lot of methane, which is a potent greenhouse gas, so reducing any kind of demand from a ranch is probably better than nothing. That said, I thought the leather used for iPhones weren’t from animals we’d traditionally use for eating. Moleskin or something?

Tanning is very polluting. Even throwing away the hides is better for the environment than tanning them.
Isn’t plastic production polluting as well?

It makes perfect sense as a PR or cost-cutting move.

But the bigger issue is the amount of environmental destruction beef farming has on the planet. Why don’t we stop that instead?

But it does reduce the profitability of beef. Thus reducing operations and preventing more carbon.

Less people would buy beef if the prices increased thus the supply will follow :)
More for me then. :)
Apple doesn’t have much control of that.
Anyone that buys cow products has control of it
But then, if it depends on customers to collectively stop buying something, we’re doomed already.
One less animal product consumer prevents the deaths of many animals. You’re using the all or nothing fallacy.
Because there isn’t a good alternative to red meat?
Ever heard of plants?
You can’t get the same amount of amino acids that you can with meat without consuming 1000s of excess calories.
Also iron from plants is hardly bioavailable.
Well vegans do it, so it must be available enough
soylent would like to have a word.
I tried it, that stuff runs right through me. It’s highly processed junk.
I get like half my calories from it
You should do a blood test with your doctor, for science!

Those are junk. Not healthy at all.
Research says red meat isn’t for your heart health
Excessive red meat you mean? Same goes for excessive fried potatoes. Everything in moderation
Red meat is also a class A2 carcinogen byw.
So is glyphosate which is used to grow many plant based food crops.
Hot beverages are another that have the same classification.

Not a waste product, they rely on the profits of everything, it’s a product just as much as meat is and slowling demand for it is good.
It reduces the profitability of the meat industry
