[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2066122, member: 196898"] While I agree with your comment at the moment, the main tenet behind this thread is that there are moves to curtail choice and force this diet onto the world population in the name of saving the planet. These moves have already been accepted in several countries, and wil soon be discussed in the UK parliament with the idea of legislating a forced reduction of animal products, This ethos is IMO totally against democracy and freedom of choice, and we are sleepwalking into it, What do you think will happen when livestock farming is stopped. Will we have fields of happy and contented cows, lambs, chickens? No they will be culled en masse, as is already happening in China, We could see extinctions of whole swathes of the animal kingdom, starting with the ruminants, and then progressing out into the wild as people scramble to get meat, Fish will likewise suffer and be decimated. This is not being put forward to save the animal kingdom, and will also harm the human kingdom too. It may save the planet, but at what cost? [/QUOTE]
