    I’m all in for reducing beef consumption, not just because of the green aspect but also health… having said that, this is yet another fool’s errand the masses have been set to follow:

    1. we could curve global beef consumption significantly by realign massive sectors of the supply chain, agriculture and education OR
    2. we could get rid of the Kardashian (sp?) that likes to take private jet hops to avoid minutes of traffic

      You know who says changing beef consumption is impossible so it’s meaningless to even try? Beef industry spokespeople.

      I mean, what’s more impossible - changing Western dietary habits or changing the entire structure of capitalism and representative democracy that allows rich people to own private jets?

        I don’t know, do you?

        All I’m saying is eliminating bad habits from literally a few individuals would have a greater effect than curving the habits of millions

        I mean, what are you? A spokesperson for Boeing?
