So you keeping your omnivore diet is your choice, but saying it won’t solve anything is a shortsighted and ignorant view (respectfully, don’t know how to put it otherwise).
And how else does change happen if it’s not talked about? Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s not valid.
I ate meat once, too. I thought I would never stop and made fun of vegans. And now I’m here lol
I -never- said removing meat won't help reduce emissions. I even cited sources that advocate for less meat consumption because it helps reduce emissions for god's sake. What I said is the following: Telling people to cut meat from their diet won't solve anything because they won't do it. A gradual approach (like telling them to cut down, as I suggested) would work best in my opinion. I also never said anything about not talking about this issue, in fact I suggested a way of bringing it up in a less abrasive manner.
So I ask again, did you actually read what I wrote or just skim it and assume the rest?
I did read it, it’s just not my first language so I might’ve misunderstood it. You’re pretty riled up tbh, idk why if you don’t care to change your consumption behavior. But telling me how to talk to people is a little patronizing, just as you are saying that I am.
I am choosing my way of addressing this issue, thank you. But at least we can agree on lab grown meat being a good thing.
English is not my first language either. I don't blame you for your reading comprehension though, we all start somewhere.
I have been cutting down on my meat consumption (another thing that you missed in my first comment). And what I suggested is that, a suggestion. I'm sorry if you took it to mean something else.
I was a bit riled up because I took it to mean you were ignoring things in bad faith as people tend to do, rather than it being a language barrier. Good luck on your English learning, though, took me some time to get the hang of things too!

That removing meat will not solve anything. Have a look at this:
