Cost. I mainly eat rice. But I’ll take meat when I can get it. Chicken, beef, mongolian wookie meat. Doesn’t matter. Humans are omnivorous. We require protein to function.
I have made a pottage of carrots, potatoes, onions, and sweet potatoes today. It’s all about cost for me.
I eat beef (occasionally) due to its excellent flavor, versatility in cuisine, and high complex protein density.
Why aren’t you living out in the woods eating nuts and berries? Whatever device you’re using to post this, it’s terrible for Earth!
The real question is, why should we try to not eat beef for the environment, when corporations make 90% of all pollution in the world.
Maybe focus on the 90% of the problem and not the individual people who but meat?
No corporation pollutes except to produce goods or services for human consumption, or for other businesses that provide goods or services for human consumption.
Every gallon of gas burned is to power a vehicle to move you, or the goods you purchase.
Every natural gas line leads to a house, of a business that sells things to houses.
Theres no such thing as a corporation without consumers, we are where the buck is created, and where the buck stops.
the beef industry wouldnt be razing down the amazon forest if no one was buying and eating it, would they?
