Reducing beef production isn’t a meaningless gesture?

Oh yeah, I forgot one university ending their beef sales will save the world.

Beef production in the West is meaningless compared to the pollution in third world/developing nations.

Well with that mindset, we should continue using plastic straws because everyone else does, or continue buying single use plastic because other people do. And then screw our planet even more.

And just because beef production is less significant in comparison to pollution elsewhere, doesn’t mean that’s something that doesn’t have to change. Every little step towards saving the environment helps - doesn’t matter if it’s one person using refillable cups or a whole university cutting out beef.

They would have been better banning prawns...they have a larger carbon footprint than beef.

That's just completely incorrect, and it's brainwashing

Saving the environment will only come from getting countries to cut back on their industrial emissions. Nothing else will make a difference. Nothing else will save the planet

Personally, i think it will be self regulating. As the planet has more areas that become uninhabitable through climate change, the population will be killed off and therefore pollute less

It’s not gonna ‘save’ the planet as such, no, but it’s definitley going to prolong the window of time we have before it’s too late to save anything.

No it's not, and people should stop kidding themselves that it will. It's misinformation

Except the places which will become uninhabitable first are the ones wiphich cause the least pollution as it is, so really you’re just suggesting killing off half the planet for no reason. Good logic there.
