You haven't made vegan food free yet. Make vegan food free, and people will naturally eat more of it. Plus you solve hunger at the same time.
You do care about reducing beef consumption right? Well start here. Stop spinning your wheels elsewhere
It's fine for Earth. The Earth will be here long after we kill ourselves with global warming.
The USA has abundant farmland and the ability to feed its own citizens with its existing agriculture. Beef is tasty and I'm glad we have so many cows we can eat. If the rest of the world doesn't like that they are free to eat as many bugs as they want.
Because people are selfish and shortsighted. I was for most of my life, it wasn't until this year that my excuses stopped working for me.
I love cows more than beef. There is a crazy amount of pro-beef propaganda in the comments here. No, most people do not require meat. I hope most people would change their habits if they saw the consequences of their choices.

How can you argue with this?
It causes needless suffering.
I'm happy with a vegan patty.
A classic burger is delicious! Just watch The Menu
because not every country produce beef like you westerner. and not everyone eat beef everyday.
go make your government ban beef like you ban palm oil if you really care about earth.
It's nutritious. Instead of carefully observing some diet you can eat some beef and buckwheat or cabbage or beans, and you're good.
That said, I eat meat so rarely that my relatives worry, mainly because it takes some time to cook if you boil it, and I'm lazy and unorganized, and frying it has the potential of, eh, leaving the kitchen for 5 minutes which turn out to be half an hour and returning for the smell.
Other than that people can't care about every problem at once.
1 the amount of beef I eat is not a major contributer to the problem. No matter how hard I try. The actual major contributors what to distract people by telling them that they can make the difference. They can't. 2 I don't like plants... 3 the way the grow plants for food is also terrible for earth
I eat beef (occasionally) due to its excellent flavor, versatility in cuisine, and high complex protein density.
Humans can be weird about these facts or simply indifferent to the known effect that raising these animals for meat has on the environment. Additionally, I think the antagonistic message of a few vocal vegans triggered a powerful foolishness in the heads of certain people who are prone to acting hedonistically upon being told not to do something. A combination of apathy, chasing profits, taste for beef, and spite which fuels the industrialized beef production business. Another issue is that most of us simply won't be around to experience the consequences of the unchecked corporations responsible for this willful harm the meat industry is causing Earth's climate and surrounding environment. I believe in moderation, eating as little of all the meats as possible (those industries have a big impact on the environment). As an American, I see a weird pride that certain people have about eating as much meat as possible; loudly shunning and making fun of those who have either a mostly plant-based, vegetarian, or vegan diet. It's such a selfish outlook that happens in societies that focus on the individual over the many.
Beef makes money. Just like cars, oil makes money.
