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?
Corporations are only producing things that people want. I’m all for strict regulation, but “blame the corporations and not yourself” is a huge copout. Especially when reducing your meat consumption is one of the single most impactful things you can do to reduce your effect on the climate.
Corporations caused this problem by buying politicians that created regulations favorable to them. They are the only entities big enough to fix this problem, for instance, by recapturing gases like methane. I refuse to be held responsible for simply eating.
Yea but not what you or I want. Or else they wouldn’t have turned turned the entire tech industry into an AI Ponzi scheme.

Corporations exist to create value for their shareholders. AKA the people responsible for 2/3s of pollution.
We can all eat shit and die and corporations will still cut that shit with the last of the Amazonian sawdust.
Corporations killed localized food supplies and all but eliminated traditional perennial crops that provided a lot of the nutrition we now get from meat/dairy.
Think of EVs. Corporations didn’t want to manufacture them but people acting together forced them to. Then it only took a handful of people to let them drop it again (in the us).
If protectionism against Chinese made vehicles ever ends, GM and Ford are going to disappear overnight. They keep insisting on focusing on smaller quantity of less variety of more expensive vehicles, and resisting modernization
This exactly!!
