This chit is funny. I want to know his plan for making volcanos to stop. Because 95% of the carbon emissions in the air is from volcanos. Car emissions don’t even make a full 5 percent and neither does manufacturing. But the biggest polluter in the world China has eaten all other countries so called carbon savings and gone beyond making the so called green tech for themselves and everyone else. And guess what. China outlook is using more newer coal power plants because the 30 years of green tech cannot keep up. One volcanic eruption eats five years of the most efficient countries so called carbon savings. One pop. The world averages 11-45 eruptions a year.

I am all for technology solutions and whatever we can do to change the damage we have done. But we keep seeming to forgot that our whole food system must change to really make a difference. We can still feed the world and even ship food to other places but the methods used have to change. We loose millions of tons of topsoil every year from plowing fields. No matter how many chemicals you put on the land it will not be able to grow food in just a few decades. We must switch to a regenerative system. Just being organic is not enough. Put animals back on pasture. Stop feeding them modified corn and other grains they don’t need or even process right. Not to mention how much healthier it would be for people consuming them. And we would not be plowing up all the millions of acres to grow the corn to feed them. Most of the corn grown is not as food for people it is to feed cows in feed lots that stand in feet of there own waste. That makes them sick makes our water shed sick. And us sick. Even the grains that are grown for direct food has been so changed it is not good for us. Even our vegetables are full of harmful bacteria and cause horrible outbreaks of ecolli. And other harmful even deadly disease. If we really want things to change our food system must change.

Not only is “organic” not enough, it is pseudoscience doing harm.
Jh5578
February 22, 2022 at 5:29 pm
The regenerative ag thing is bogus. You can restore soils without farm animals by using cover crops, green manures and nitrogen fixing plants. Go and read the actual scientific literature and you will see they support plant based diets in order to help the environment. The IPCC themselves even state that a Vegan diet is the best scalable diet for the planet.
lou e
February 22, 2022 at 5:52 pm
@Jh5578 having animals as part of nature is not a bad thing. If you want to be vegan great but don’t press your views on others. And an all vegan diet is not good for everyone. I have colitis and tried going vegan it made everything worse. Even Palio was not good for me at first. I had to go nearly all carnivore before it started to get better. I can now add in veggies and fruit which I love. But it is a slow process. I do think for most people a more plant based diet it optimal. But no one system is great for everyone. And if you eat vegan so not to harm animals then don’t buy commercial grown plants thousands of animals are killed in the process. One organic farmer if avocados said he has kill thousands of ground squirrels to stop them from destroying his trees. Not to mention all the other animals that are killed in fields from machinery. And as far as the science goes I have seen many studies that prove having animals as part of the regenerative system is a much more holistic approach.
Jh5578
February 22, 2022 at 11:14 pm
@lou e I never said having animals as part of nature was a bad thing.
Dude you just “pressed your views” on pseudoscience regen animal ag, we are all free to voice our own opinions, not that I “pressed” anything I simply stated what the authority on climate change the IPCC said, that Vegan diets are best for the environment.
The Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics, the World Health Organisation, the NHS, Mayo Clinic, Clevland Clinic, the dietetics associations of Britain, of Canada & Australia all state: Vegan diets are healthy for all ages and lower risk of heart disease and T2 diabetes. This is the science. Your anecdotes simply aren’t good evidence. Gastroenterologists seem to stress the need for adequate fibre in the diet.
I’m a Vegan not a pacifist, I’m not even a pacifist towards humans. Humans die in car crashes and home invasions, animals die by getting hit by machines and being killed as pests… none of these deaths are ideal or desirable and we should work to minimise them, however I see no deontological moral problem. Veganic farming and vertical farming can dramatically reduce animal deaths in plant farming in future. Regardless even if you look at it consequentially far less animals die in plant ag compared to animal ag even if you compare it to grass fed beef. The amount of plant food you get per hectare is monumentally larger compared to high welfare meat. The Davis rebuttal concludes “to obtain the 20 kilograms of protein per year recommended for adults, a vegan would kill 0.3 wild animals
annually, a lacto-vegetarian would kill 0.39 wild animals, while a welfare
omnivore diet would kill 1.5 wild animals” (tbf if someone ate a diet of all plants except hunted game that would result in fewer deaths than a Vegan diet and arguably be better for the environment too, however such a diet cannot be scaled to a large population and is deontologically indefensible);
Again the IPCC say Vegan is best as does the Joseph Poore Oxford study. Plus you can do regen ag without methane emiting cows.
“Green Manure aka mulch had higher contents of organic matter and numbers of microfauna than
fertilised soils, and were more enriched in P, K, Ca and Mg in topsoils and nitrate N, Ca and Mg in
subsoils. Manured soils also had lower bulk density and higher porosity, hydraulic conductivity
and aggregate stability, relative to fertilised soils. There was no significant difference
(P < 0.05) between fertilisers and manures in their long-term effects on crop production." "Cover crops are usually leguminous to improve soil health by guaranteeing permanent soil cover, adding organic matter to soil and fixing atmospheric nitrogen. *These help reverse soil degradation."* (I can't put extranal links to these sources because YouTube blocks stuff now.)

@fiona fiona Sure it could be used in certain areas in certain edge cases. But I don’t think that was their claim.
Regardless in 7 to 8 years lab grown meat will be in supermarkets at price parity with with slaughter meat and the price will keep falling from there. Lab meat is far better for the environment. A vegan / lab meat diet globally could free up an area the land the size of Africa. Currently ~90% of the large animal biomass across the world are our farm animals, only ~10% wild. The wild animals are losing their habitats and going extinct in droves.The more land we can give back the better, *even* in the remote areas you’re referring to imo.

February 23, 2022 at 6:10 pm
@fiona fiona You are incorrect about lab meat being particularly harmful to the environment. Growing meat from cells is far, far more efficient than growing meat in the body of an animal which requires the growth of unwanted matter like bones, organs, skin, brains etc. The amount of energy required for lab meat is miniscule in comparison. Read the Rethinkx paper if you actually want to see the data.
Yeah I don’t care what you and your mum think. Financial analyst Rethinkx are betting on slaughter ag going bankruptcy in the 2030s.
