Did we talk about climate change yet? Of course we are biased: We have a bias against human caused mass extinction events and the suffering it will cause to all animals including human beings. As we have discussed before, without any action we are on track for 4-5 degrees Celsius increase by 2100 way above the 2 degrees Celsius limit of the Paris agreement let alone the more lofty goal of 1.5°C.
This new report by the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy confirms our internal calculations that the original FAO report is underestimating the emissions of animal agriculture. Reducing, or better yet eliminating, our meat, dairy, and eggs consumption is one of the only way to significantly affect climate change without the need for technological innovation, government, or corporate intervention.
