Another simple step? Might wanna try out plant based (i did not say vegan because if you go ‘plant based’ you dont have to ‘restrict’ yourself in any capacity but your own will).
The less animal the better, but a shift away from beef and lamb is a start, and it’s something that in the US, relatively few people realize has an impact.
Wait, lamb? I thought sheep and goats were relatively low-impact.
No, they’re ruminants, with similar methane-producing bacteria in their digestive systems.
Goodbye, sweet gyros…
Lamb is less polluting per calorie than beef is, but worse than most other foods. So “relatively low-impact” is true if the thing it’s relative to is farmed beef, but not to potatoes or even chicken
Absolutely. However i often get the feeling that people do not really care (due to beeing stressed, occupied or something, i do not want to judge). Can’t hurt to spread the awareness though.
We are long past the point where any self imposed limitations of the average person can change anything for the better, the world is burning and 90% of the population is still in denial or doesn’t care. The only way anything major can change is if the lawmakers get their shit together, but chances for this are close to nill as long as we allow them to get bankrolled by corps.
Sure I could spend my last few good years eating nothing but gras while gluing myself onto the road in protest just to delay the inevitable by 5 nanoseconds, but I honestly don’t care anymore. This world doesn’t want to save itself and that includes everyone from boomers to zoomers.
nuh uh
