Meat Reduction Diet

Don’t let perfection become the enemy of doing better.

 

Don't ask people to become vegans and vegetarians. Don't even bother trying.

Ask people to reduce their meat consumption - especially cattle - by 10%. That's it. Just ten percent.

 

After all asking someone for 50% sounds like a lot but 10-20% isn't so bad.

 

I aimed for 10% meat reduction and I landed at AT LEAST 50% while also eliminating beef pretty much entirely. Effortlessly. Didn’t even barely think about it. Because 10% is easy and 50% sounds tough.

 

Beef is bad in a league all of it’s own.

“You should know removing beef from your diet could reduce your own footprint by as much as 80% of someone going vegetarian.”

Cattle and cattle feed take up radically disproportionate amounts of land. Land that could be used to grow far larger quantities of food – or be returned to nature.

​

Conveniently the prices are skyrocketing anyway. Here folks were worried us hippies would come for their hamburgers – Capitalism beat us to it! Thanks Capitalism!
