Scientists back meat diet, call for end to vegetarian, vegan ‘zealotry’
https://www.theage.com.au/world/europe/scientists-back-meat-diet-call-for-end-to-vegetarian-vegan-zealotry-20230501-p5d4q6.html

London: Meat is crucial for human health, scientists have warned, as they called for an end to the “zealotry” pushing vegetarian and vegan diets.
Dozens of experts were asked to look into the science behind claims that meat eating causes disease and is harmful for the planet in a special issue of the journal Animal Frontiers.
The edition includes a declaration signed by nearly 1000 scientists across the globe, who argue that livestock farming was too important to society to “become the victim of zealotry”.
Their Dublin Declaration includes signatories from the British universities of Cambridge, Edinburgh, Bristol, Belfast, Newcastle, Nottingham and Surrey, as well as several scientists from Britain’s world-leading agricultural and farming university Harper Adams.
“Livestock-derived foods provide a variety of essential nutrients and other health-promoting compounds, many of which are lacking in diets even among those populations with higher incomes,” the declaration states.
The scientists warned that it was difficult to replace the nutritional content of meat, arguing that poorer communities with low meat intake often suffer from stunting, wasting and anaemia driven by a lack of vital nutrients and protein.

It's the rootmass beneath the surface which is the most impressive element of perennial pasture to me. Though omega 3 is much higher in grass fed beef than feedlot beef. You still raise good points though.

Anyway this corresponds to better water infiltration, upcycling of nutrients, vastly superior carbon sequestration and improved soil building.

>> No.15408916

but that omega three is only CLA and ALA.
Yeah it's way better than stock fattened on omega 6 heavy grains but it's not DHA and and EPA

Cows are by far the most efficient way of transforming readily available, indigestible to humans plant matter, in the form of grasses and flowering herbs.
Anyone telling you chickens, pigs or some other monogastic animal is better is full of shit. A cow with it's massive digestive system has far better extraction of energy and proteins than any small animal. These comparisons only measure weight and neglect nutrient density, water content, food value of grass vs the grains fed to chickens etc.
A beef cow eats 90% of it's lifetime energy in the form of pasture grazing, 10% is grains just before slaughter to increase the quality of the end product.

>> No.15408927

>>15408919
The true value of monogastrics is to consume byproducts efficiently and act as a mechanism to offset food gluts and famines.

If you have a good crop you feed more pigs, meaning more cheap pork, if you have a bad crop you just don't raise as many pigs despite cultivating the same cropped area each year.
The effect of this is that you mostly stabilise the grain market, if you are in any danger of famine you simply divert grain back to humans.
Pork has a pretty short turnaround and expansion rates but chicken production is even quicker.

No, it doesn't, except when compared to extremely efficient automation.

And I hope you realize how insane you sound with the "humane" argument. Naive feel-good bullshit that changes nothing. We still eat other animals, even if we were to cut down our efficiency at it for no reason. We completely dominate all other animals on the entire planet and do whatever the fuck we want with them at our whim. Horse populations peaked when we needed them for transportation, and went back to natural levels when the car took over. We turned wild wolves into work animals and later bred them into unhealthy dysgenic failures for no other reason than our own ignorance and amusement. Our advancement has destroyed countless species and will continue to do so.
Welcome to humanity. You can turn your human compassion and higher moral values towards animals to feel good but ultimtely that's just a brain glitch. Your lizard brain didn't develop empathy and mirror neurons to make you a worse hunter, it was to keep your own pack safe. You're just too deep in higher reasoning and too disconnected from our animal nature if you feel bad for your food.

yes, granary storage is quite useful, but the living granary effect of livestock is more versatile and responsive without relying on large grain storage.

I recommend the boook Meat a benign extravagence by Simon Fairlie, it's a little old now but the principles of his arguments are solid.
He expands on the concept of default livestock where the byproducts of everything else we grow to produce food like bread and sugar or fibre crops lead to on a per person basis a certain quantity of meat being naturally produced, it's actually a surprisingly decent quantity just by redirecting these by products to livestock consumption instead of letting them rot or be burnt.
We also have to contend with land types that are marginal for cropping directly human consumable foods, like any field with too steep a gradient. The amount of land in the world actually suitable for arable or horticulture is surprisingly small.

Nature didn't "invent" anything. Or, from a certain perspective, nature invented everything, being that we, humans, are an extension of nature.
Anyway, cows have been selectively bred by humans for millennia at this point, and it's a lot more effective for specialising animals than natural selection.

Your comparison between methods of flight is... Odd, to say the least. It seems very apples-to-oranges to me, natural selection and human innovation have totally different standards. Most of nature is full of terrible solutions that work just well enough to prevent the species from going extinct. Engineering often produces elegant, simple and efficient solutions to practical problems. In fact, humans have solved many problems nature could not, take diabetes, for example, whereby the pancreas stops producing insulin, for no reason, and your body loses most of its ability to regulate your blood glucose levels. Nature's solution is for diabetics to die. Our solution is to artificially create insulin, harvested from genetically modified bacteria.
Conversely, natural things have an element of self-repair to them. Living things heal, to a greater or lesser extent. Man-made things usually do not, they last longer overall, but degrade continuously over their lifetimes.

I see plenty of people who are subconsciously insecure about vegans or vegetarians. You eat one meal without meat and they freak out and start asking you questions. You play it off as “I’m just eating light” but the moment they figure out you’re a vegetarian, you will be verbally abused at least on a weekly basis as a heretic. The response to these sort of things is always religious in nature. That’s not to say it’s illogical - religion does interface with parts of logic, particularly on language (which is why religious people are often wordcels). But religion also has extreme emotional outbursts, and that’s what you see. Like look at far East asians and people who don’t wash their rice. The ancients Greeks used to make fun of the herders to the north as “butter eaters”.

So veganism and vegetarianism is a religious expression, and so is meat eating.

With that said, I am not religiously tolerant and I think it’s pretty vile and morally disgusting to grow animals in pens and to murder animals.

i dont understand how people can actually believe that humans arent carnivores. without meat it would have been impossible for our ancestors to get the nutrients they need. having to ship a bunch of different plants from across the planet just to SURVIVE in a plant based diet just shows how you have failed life. why were humans HUNTER gatherers or herders for most of their history? its because you need to eat animals obviously, but again people think that humans all had diets of 80%+ plants year fucking round

Its a combination of that an whats within reach.

You can never make meat in a lab or factory more efficiently and/or more sustainably than nature has already invented. We call this "hubris", a terminal case. The same holds true for softwood lumber. Excess CO2 is turned into trees and trees are used to build homes, schools, and hospitals. lab based meat and things like concrete or steel are not sustainable in the long term, they are just fads like the electric car.

It does seem odd that humans would intentionally choose to be vegetarian/vegan when we live in the most meat abundant period of human history. However just because a behavior is counter intuitive or doesn't make sense on the surface doesn't mean evolution isn't still acting on it, otherwise pedophiles, schizophrenics and liberals wouldn't exist.

plant foods absolutely do not use less resources. ruminant animals can be used to regenerate dead land, plants can only take nutrients especially when most farmers couldnt care less for what happens to the land they farm on, so long as there is enough fertilizer and pesticides and water that they can continue farming. all this land is wasted for plants that are less nutritious than meat and other animal products in every way. eggs are literally the easiest food to digest.

that's a meme, grassfed meat is a meme, you would need multiple earths to supply enough calories to the earth population if you went with that route
>all this land is wasted for plants that are less nutritious than meat and other animal products in every way
you can hit all your nutritional needs with plant foods, you can open nutrition sites like cronometer and check that yourself, clinical studies also show a vegan diet is as good as omnivorous diet for muscle gain, and what metric are you using when you mean more nutritious, per calorie, per grams? Then there's plenty of plant foods who are more nutritious than several animal products in both metrics, also a multivitamin is more nutritious than basically all animal products in both of those metrics so if all you care about is what gives you the most nutrition the easiest then take a multivitamin pill, it will take you are literal second to go through it
something can be nutritious but detrimental to your health, take a multivitamin pill and mix it with some cyanide, so a meal being nutritious alone doesn't tell you if it's healthy

all life from the smallest cells is over a billion years old. And no, you cant get everything you need from plants. its pure delusion. our digestive system isnt designed to eat plants year round. funny how you only talk about nutrients that one could theoretically eat in a plant and not the actual ability to absorb those nutrients as one does so efficiently as you will with animal foods. Mulitvitamins and all other vitamins are trash, the fact you recommend eating them every day just shows how utterly uneducated you are. your body isnt designed to ingest a sterile enzyme-less pill with carefully measured amounts of certain nutrients and addatives that may or may not even be found in normal whole food. fiber is mostly worthless to the human body. You're not a gorilla. The fact of the matter is that drones like you are why pasture raising all meat is unsustainable. instead of having the natural and historically high IMR weeding out the weak, here you are shitting up the world you soulless hack

in carnivore its more like eat muscle, a little serving of organs, and large amounts of fat on top of it. as someone who eats at least 95% animal foods, you wont gain weight unless you eat a large amount of fat. if i want to bulk i eat over 250g of fat in a day, and ill only gain maybe 1-2lbs in a week. otherwise your body just completely assimilates muscle meat and you end up gaining nothing. i dont mind people cooking meat and even having their own fruits and vegetables but im extremely tired of the pro-vegan agenda. Most people just assume eating plants will fix every problem or going vegan will just make everything better. if i could encourage someone to just say fuck it and go full carnivore its better that way since they wont sit on the fence and slowly be manipulated by the i fr*acking love science crowd coming out the woodwork with their garbage studies that they hope no one will read and criticize

it's why you can basically feed cattle on what's known as a "crude protein" basis which is just the nitrogen content multiplied by 6.25. you can literally feed them simple nitrogen sources like urea and the bugs will turn it into actual amino acids which the cow can then digest.

Possibly vegan if you can assure you never touch the cow, never pressure the cow to stay in a specific region, the cow consents to you taking its piss and doesn't need to use its own piss.
Milk is intended as nutrients for their offspring and they wouldn't be producing milk daily if they weren't groped daily, therefore not vegan; a cow specifically needing to be milked to avoid injury is a result of human-induced breeding i.e. unnatural evolution.
However an argument may be made against considering cow piss vegan, and enforce a strict ban on all animal products aside from literal water from air that they at some point breathed out. If a hypothetical animal drops and abandons a "dead egg", an egg that will hypothetically never hatch on its own and wouldn't be eaten by another animal or bug yet is somehow fit for human consumption, if it is vegan to take such a thing then humans will attempt to find more loopholes in what is vegan or not. Or perhaps there would be too many people in the area collecting "technically vegan" products that their presence end up influencing the ecosystem/environment. (Aside from the fact human existence itself already impacts the environment.)

I have no strong feelings one way or the other but as other anon mentioned chewing grass all day, why not eat the thing that does all the chewing so you can skip all that effort?

On the other hand, being plant-derived doesn't make something plant itself, just some kind of weird alchemic transmutation of plant to something that isn't quite plant. Steak is compressed plant-derived energy in something with at least a slightly higher level of conscious (cow) than plant.

>>15409722
"Goys are animals" aside, doesn't this become a circle then? A man who treats animals well is morally justified in defending himself from those who don't treat animals well and would poach him as they would with animals since man = animal. "Treat others the way you want to be treated."

>since man = animal
People say that and it's technically correct but it's a useless fact that is never applied.

If you equate man with animals now you have to think about all the animal property rights and how our car farts are affecting their mating season
And if you don't think about that, then you also don't have to think about human rights and laws - since we aren't doing it for animals (our equals), why do it for man.

I think that's the end result of the veganism ideology.

>> No.15456076

Aight that sounded weird. Partly what I mean is:
>Group B believes killing animals is permissible therefore killing humans (for reasons other than self defense) is permissible since humans = animals. The "scary part" that Anon mentions.
>Human murder is already illegal among Group A, but this time Group A is given a reason to genocide Group B or view them as savages as they are a grave threat to Group A's society. Group B not only murders humans but view them as "low" as "animals" in the conventional sense and would do anything to kill/eat humans for the lolz.
>Aliens visit Earth and decide to wipe humans just like some humans wipe some species into extinction. Or farm humans for tasty brains. Group A stands "moral ground" against-- ACK
Again, the concept murder and self defense is already a thing, so what's the point? You're right, it's just massive cope or holier than thou attitude or whatever. The "point" is the aliens can't *logically* use the argument "but you do it too lol" (though aliens may have the power glass Earth anyway regardless of who's right or wrong). "It" meaning "freely massacring lesser species when you can avoid it or negotiate".

I'm not a vegan and am making up this example as a weird thought exercise.

Right, we're never truly equal in all forms or on all levels. One thing I see is "we can never be 100% ethical, but we can strive to be slightly more ethical". "Equality" here just means "am I allowed to kill or exploit this thing". (As for actual humans lacking rights, that's a human rights issue, maybe animal equality is slightly less relevant?)
Is it possible animals can "technically have rights but don't exercise them due to not knowing they had these rights and cannot be reasonably explained to"? Animals wouldn't know what's on the ballot or be able to register to vote, or truly taught how to vote or voting in a way that is meaningful to them. They wouldn't know how to seek employment, own land, or agree to pay land tax. If taxation is a thing, maybe they don't want to serve a human governor. Possible "they were here first".
What if I refuse to be a taxpayer? Renounce my citizenship. Civil rights != human rights. Human rights are something like "not be killed on the spot" and "allowed to be deported to another country that would take me" instead of landing in perma jail (unless I sneak into the country again I guess idk).
Again I'm just thinking random shit to myself, you can just ignore me.

My question: why aren't all biomes lush forrest with 30ft loamy soils? What limits soil microbiology from producing those conditions?

elaine ingham method of keeping soil microbes happy claims to be able to put ~100g/acre nitrogen, where modern farming needs ~ 100lb.

I don't where a lot of hippy stuff comes from, but those figures above seem extremely economical, especially considering the costs of the system seem to only be the time required to record & analyze soil ecology in the field, and need a good source of aerobic compost with good soil ecosystem with which to make compost extract to spray the fields with, and so inoculating the field with microbes.

Additionally such a system claims to need no pesti/fungi/insecticides, as soil ecosystem keeps pathogens in check. More, seemingly significant savings.

Grass fed cows do not have the same environmental effect that farming your fucking onions does. You only care about optics, no matter the impact on other animals and the environment. You want your plate to not have a piece of animal tissue on it, whatever has to be destroyed to make that happen be damned. Regenerating native grassland by using large herds of ruminants isn't a meme, go choke on a dick.
>you can hit all your nutritional needs with plant food
Except B12, taurine, D3, heme iron. You can live your life as a haggard, miserable vegan popping B12 pills.
>multivitamins are have more of the nutrients technically!
This is not how nutrition works. I don't blame you though since even nutritionists don't seem to comprehend how nutrition works half the time either.
>there's evidence of basically all of that that in ancient humans too
Yes and we consistently see a sharp increase in all of it when farming comes along and we start eating way more plants and way less meat
>M-MUH FALLACY
Yes how dare we take into account evolution, biology and physiology when discussing nutrition. Let's assume reality is wrong and science has to rediscover everything before it manifests itself into existence. Observing the naturally existing physiology of an organism is "a fallacy". Stupid disingenuous faggot.
