All 10 of the largest U.S. meat and dairy companies have lobbied against environmental and climate policies, resisting climate regulations, including rules on greenhouse gases and emissions reporting. This is according to a study by New York University, which examined the political influence of the 10 largest meat and dairy companies in the United States.
Not at all biased when the article starts out with a likely out of context picture of a cow looking terrified and as if it’s crying. Fuck corporations, all of them, fuck them all, but there are a few of us with severe enough allergies that without meat we would starve. Ableist bullshit to believe everyone can stop eating meat.
Two words: lab-grown meat. That’s the only way for sustainable meat consumption.
what does sustainable mean?
So if experts in the field conceded that there is an unbreakable ceiling for lab-grown meat that it will never be as sustainable as organic meat, would that change your view?
Because the most efficient lab grown meat requires incubator technology that scales negatives; that is, you lose efficiency as you scale up, so you would need lots of small, prohibitively expensive, in a massive perfectly contaminant-free clean-room. Short of starting from scratch and discovering a completely new technique that has never been envisioned, lab-grown meat will always be worse for the environment and for sustainability than organic meat.
Some people don’t like this guy, but this is a fairly honest video on the problems with lab-grown meat.
If it ever becomes affordable I would love to see that and would certainly consider it. Until then…
Personification is a dangerous tool
I sincerely doubt that you can only eat meat…
That’s not what I said, but it’s what you wanted to hear. I wish your doubts could change the facts of my existence but they can’t . I said I would be severely limited and I am. I have a salicylate allergy so severe I can’t eat 90% of veggies. There are several other true allergies and then there are tested IgG sensitives to most grains and nuts. Congratulations, you’re an ableist and if there’s one thing I’m used to it’s ableists telling me what I should be able to do. Luckily extremist vegans will never achieve their goals.
