    I think you overestimate many of the people fighting on the vegan side of arguments these days ;)

    And I mean that only half tongue-in-cheek. Too often, people who should be smart enough to know better put on blinders because “I love animals and don’t want you eating them” mashes up with “what’s actually good or bad for the environment and climate”

    We absolutely should be making improvements to farming to continue to scale. Unlimited amounts of chicken or pork are indefinitely sustainable at the low-low price of perhaps making animal treatment vs climate decisions that might be difficult for some. I swear they hold on to the whole vegan thing because sometimes the most climate-friendly choice is a little less humane-seeming to some people.
