Modelled estimates of the environmental impact of dietary choices often fail to reflect true dietary practice. This study links a dietary dataset from 55,000 UK consumers with food-level data on GHG emissions, land use, water use, eutrophication and biodiversity to compare the environmental burden of different levels of meat consumption.
What if someone has money and doesn’t vare about his health? Do you think is good to impose your choice upon others?
No I do not think it is right to impose choice on others and I never said as much. I believe people ought to be free to waste money if they so see fit. But when it comes to the collective level, we ought to be subsidizing sustainable agriculture and not corn and beef as we (USA) currently do. I.E. when it comes to policy the policy should be directed towards incentivizing people towards sustainability. This doesn’t take away people’s free choice to eat beef, it just means they do so on their own dollar and not the governments.
Since you mentioned sustainable agriculture i suggest you to read the book “everything i want to do is illegal by joel salatin”. He is a pioneer on real substainable farming, but spoiler alert the government make his job super hard and really expensive because politics need to help the poor bilionaires that can’t afford the 3rd yacht
