If you care enough about the emissions that get released in a longer chain of delivery, you probably also dont eat meat.

    I am not to blame for emissions or the environment, corporations need to do better on that themselves seeing as they are the ones causing 99% of it. Putting the blame on the individual is just cruel and adds unnecessary stress on people who simply don't need it.

    Also, one person with a personal garden isn't going to change anything at all. One person not eating meat will just be replaced by 5 newborns from a trailer park in about 3 years. Put the blame on corporations where it belongs. Unfortunately with the state of the world the way it is nothing will change until it is no longer profitable to rape the planet. I'd rather try to enjoy what little I can with what I can before the world fully bursts into flames.

    If you follow your logic to its end it alsobis completely fine to roll coal and be a general piece of shit since it wouldnt actually change anything on a big scale.

    Where do you think all those corporations get their demand and money from? If nobody bought any more meat the slaughterhouses would have to close down eventually. And sure, you alone wont be able to make any big changes overnight but if enough people do it at the same time you will have an influence on the market and governments.
