Climate

I agree that the burden of the climate crisis should not be on individuals. However ideally, I would like everyone to reduce or eiliminate animal products consumption. It is habit leftover from times past, and today there are much better options for food, leather, etc. And animal agriculture really does have a large impact on climate.

Some reasons that people continue to eat meat at high levels is miseducation/marketing, convenience, and cost. These reasons could be brought under control by eliminating government funding for animal agriculture, prohibiting misleading advertising for unhealthy food, and shifting the healthcare system to prioritize preventative care. Unfortunately these system level changes are unlikely anytime soon, at least in the US. That is why raising awareness on the topic is important.
