When we eat meat of livestock, we become part of the cycle that contributes 80 million metric tons of methane per year into the atmosphere. Methane is one of the greenhouse gases and is 20 times better than carbon dioxide in trapping heat. Each of us can help lower the emissions by lowering the intake of livestock meat. Seafood, soy and veges will good enough for us. Toufu or tsunami? Pick one.
I agree with you bro on this. Lowering the intake but not by striking it off entirely. I remember there was this cartoon by Pixel which was on the Bee. The Bees think that they should not collect pollen, and in the end the greens in the world start dying.
So if everyone in this world stop eating meat, will the greens survive. It's a cycle effect where 1 thing affects the other.
The problem with most people when they say they want to lose weight, stay healthier adopt a healthier lifestyle, they say convert to vegetarian, this is not wrong, but they do not read up on what kind of veges is actually good and what is bad.
Eg, people say steer clear from oily food, but there is good fats and bad fats, trans fat, saturated fats. If oily food is bad, why do people eat fish oils?
Yes, you say eat soy, seafood, but I read before health forums where there were people who posted reports that says eating soy products too many is not good for health. seafood contains cholesterol, but there are also good and bad cholesterol.
So far up till what I read, at least you point out the methane part, but the rest of the
"vegetables" here have done nothing much except to say i feel healthier, i can run longer distance, bullshit, you can do that even if you eat meat. Some vegetables are high in carbohydrates, and if one is in a sedentary lifestyle, eating too much vegetables with carbohydrates content can even get fat and heart failure one day.
