That's right, everyone sit on their hands and do nothing until we've got "good science". /s

Did you make your account to just shit on this post?

That’s right, everyone sit on their hands and do nothing

this is a strawman.

if i told you spinning in circles would help the planet, and i presented a study with dubious methodology, would you spend your time and energy spinning til you made yourself sick, or would you look for an actual solution?

It's no secret that meat/dairy has a huge carbon footprint, the concept of reducing your animal produce intake for the benefit of the environment is pretty well established. We should be looking to reduce our impact as individuals as well as a species where we can, via both immediate options for purchasing choices as well as quality research in to better ways to do so.

Edit: this guy has already been told off for bad faith posting - https://scribe.disroot.org/post/2494911/4479205

The spinning in circles is a strawman. This guy doesn't have any answers he just wants to shit on plant based diets.
