what I find silly about going “vegan” is that it’s roughly 5% of the US population. Let’s say you boost it to 10% with all the posturing about saving the planet. Getting 50% of the population to half their meat consumption would have 5x the impact.
Trump utterly destroying the US’s economy may very well be the best thing for global warming. No one will be able to afford meat. It’s rice and beans for everyone!

Yes, it’s all about the collective power of people.
