[Answered] Why is the consumption of Meat considered bad
I heard something to do with Nitrogen and …cow farts(?) I am really unsure of this and would like to learn more.
Answer -
4 Parts
- Ethical reason for consuming animals
- Methane produced by cows are a harmful greenhouse gas which is contributing to our current climate crisis
- Health Reasons - there is convincing evidence that processed meats cause cancer
- it takes a lot more calories of plant food to produce the calories we would consume from the meat.

You don't. You enforce laws on deforestation. Either by replacing every cut tree with a new planted one somewhere not good for farmland, or just banning it. Supply would plateau and the price of the commodity will go up which is unfortunate but the reality of increased demand.
Ah yes, let’s stop illegal rainforest destruction by banning it. Nobody ever tried that l! /s
You have to enforce it too dumbass.
Wow, again, I don’t think anyone has ever tried that
But still the point is, you're not arguing against livestock, you're arguing against deforestation.
Continuing to support demand for beef at current rates as the population grows means that beef production must increase. That means we need more cows. Where do you propose we put all those cows? The current solution has been to cut down trees to create usable land. What's your alternative?
I can’t tell at this point if you just don’t understand causality, you’re fishing for downvotes (is that a thing on Lemmy now?), or you’re a meat industry shill
Also, no, I don't think Brazil has.
