People who want to save the planet:
>We should eat less meat
Polcels and trumptards:
>YOU MEAN EAT BUGS1???!?? I'LL NEVER EAT BUGS!!
People who want to save the planet:
>You know you can just eat less meat and more vegetables, you don't have to eat bugs
Polcels and trumptards:
>their feeble brains break trying to understand this situation

>humans eat the cicadas
>birds die
>ground not fertilized by their bodies
>pollen not transferred
>nature suffers more than if we had just kept eating cows and reduced excessive farming

look at the dead and souless eyes, devoid of any divine animating spark. truly, the grace of god has gone out.

what a gross and shitty post

>>16093115
>You WILL eat the bugs
If it weren't for /pol/ posting on /ck/ I'd be told this roughly 0 times per month. Just like how I could think about trannies 0 times per month if it weren't for certain people insisting that the modern world was shoving them in my face.

>Eats less meat and more veggies to save the planet
>people burn more forest land to grow veggies
Now what?

Meat takes far more land per calorie, sorry sweaty

Land used for animal grazing is often not good agricultural land or is used for grazing when it's fallow.

Blame the news outlets that publish the propaganda, don't blame shitposters for pulling your head out of the sand.

I can almost guarantee that, like most other Americans and europoors, your poor ass doesn’t buy pasture-raised beef.
That means we grow corn and soy to feed those cows, land which would be able to be used to grow crops for human consumption.
Get rid of all meat and land use, water use, and fertilizer/insecticide use would drop dramatically

>>16093140
Yeah because you don't read Wired obviously.

So would our IQs.

Actually many studies have shown that vegans and vegetarians are smarter on average than meat eaters.

It does, most of the animals in my country are raised via grazing. Furthermore to make the land where they're grazing viable for agriculture, you'll need to increase production of fertilisers and insects as well as fossil fuel based machinery. And this is all based on the false premise that we're living in an eschatological age.

>>16093218
Nope.

>>16093218
I haven't seen any that weren't ideologically compromised and biased. I'm going to continue eating my beef raised in the beautiful farmland around me and butchered locally which I buy from a village butcher.

>>16093218
Einstein ate meat.

>>16093193
this is demonstrably false
More than 80 percent of cow feed comes from plants and agricultural byproducts not consumable by humans and most feed are grown on land not suitable for farming
