I’ve read in an Article that meat production causes a lot of co² emission. Now I was wondering if we stopped eating meat completely, would that be sufficient to get under the threshhold of emissions what the planet can process? What is that threshold? Where are we now? How much does meat add to this?
i don’t find this paper compelling evidence that being vegan has significant impact. it relies heavily on ivanova(2020), and additionally cites poore-nemecek(2018). ivanova, themselves, rely heavily on poore-nemecek for the data about food impacts.
so the question is: do you trust poore-nemecek 2018? i don’t. meta-analysis of LCA studies is bad science, and poore-nemecek not only designed a poor study, they didn’t bother acknowledging the problems their methods could incur.
Why don’t you bring a source to contradict?
This is absolutely not the only paper to support my claim
the rational thing to do, if there is insufficient evidence for a claim, is just to suspend judgement. it’s possible their conclusion is correct, but the evidence used to support it is insufficient.
dismissing your source doesn’t require a contradictory study.
