I agree with the premise that each person does what they can, when they can.
However we can't forget to also put pressure on the giant conglomerates pumping out oil/gas emissions without consequence. No matter how vegan we go, it will never be enough if the big corpos keep getting away with being the worst outputters.
The more sustainable the population becomes the less permissible it is for fossil fuel corporations to exist.
I've been living the bean life lately. Mostly due to kidney issues, but it's been awesome. We need more beans on Canadian diets.

I have a suggestion: skip the pop especially skip pop from US-based companies. I think if you want to make changes to your diet this is the best change to make because it will also improve your health and water is almost free (when compared to pop).
What would save the world is less billionaires and stronger regulations for companies to stop waste.
Bro a handful of corporations are responsible for 70% of world emission and overall pollution and I should change my lifestyle but not them? fuck off, we need an actual revolution, not the revolution of the kitchen
These corporations are producing emissions as a byproduct of them producing products and services for consumer lifestyles; reducing these emissions will require them to compromise on price or quality, necessarily affecting consumers.
Consider - suppose that to reduce emissions, the government shut those corporations down and prevented others from increasing their emissions. You think your lifestyle would be unaffected? You might be unable to buy a car (or unable to fuel it). You'd be unable to fly overseas. Beef would probably be more expensive, causing people to eat less of it. Regardless, your lifestyle would be impacted. Like it or not, but if you're buying products and services from these corporations (directly or not) then you're part of the problem too.
Who’s buying the meat from JBS and Cargill then? Thus feeding the beast.
more research tainted with poore-nemecek (2018) and tilman-clark (2014). when will we stop relying on lca meta"studies"?
