Hmmmm......first post is in here, with no information in profile? Excuse me if I do not share your confidence.So there you go. Stop worrying about meat. It isn’t the route cause of climate change.Stay cool, don’t worry. A meat levy isn’t going to happen.
Maybe people will need to band together somehow and start a commune where multiple parties can live off the land and produce their own meat privately...What was that we were saying about choice? Looks like we’re edging one step closer to the removal of it.
People should cut the amount of beef, lamb and dairy produce they eat by a fifth to combat climate change, a report says. It says public bodies should lead the way by offering plant-based options with all meals. But it says if people don’t cut consumption willingly, taxes on meat and dairy might be needed. The report comes from the government’s official advisers, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC).

This isn't possible as flocks of more than 5 sheep (I think) have to be registered with the government and come under general regulations. Same for cows.Maybe people will need to band together somehow and start a commune where multiple parties can live off the land and produce their own meat privately...

I was hoping to read about meat free sex although I have never been in the habit of mixing the two anyway. However the link seems to be about sustainability on campus. Do you have a link to an abstract?Jus found this learned treatise on meat reduction measures

The author is apparently a Swedish vegan activist. She features strongly in the Vegan Sexuality Forum.

I read most of it and can't see what sexual behaviour or orientation has to do with diet?...Sorry I was unable to abstract a suitable link.
According to the forum that mentions this paper, vegans have the better sex lives because they are not eating meat. There is a survey published 6 days ago that proves this apparently, but the source is extremely dubious. However, there is also a survey that shows vegans are more infertile than meat eatersI read most of it and can't see what sexual behaviour or orientation has to do with diet?...

I wonder how they quantify "better"
The Heteronormanty in the paper title refers to the way vegans class meat eaters as selfish and agressive because of the meat hormones. Vegan men are supposedly less aggressive , more caring, and not in a selfish rush if you get my drift, Vegan men last longer and are better in all respects. Remember the author of the paper is a feminist as well. (how do I know? By their use of a nonsensical term in the title to explain College food sustainability with sex). Personally I found a big confounder in their argument is alcohol use, which is a big leveller in the horizontal arenaI wonder how they quantify "better"
Well, I'm probably going to be very unpopular here, but I agree that climate change needs to be tackled. If this means a shift in the way that agricultural land is used (more crops and less livestock) then we will have to pay more (or reduce) our consumption of animal-based products.
Countries like Australia won't be able to raise any lifestock if climate change means permanent severe drought and fires.

OK, not sure how accurate the above is but it does compare greenhouse gas emissions for different food types : lamb, beef and cheese are 1,2,3 on the list. Maybe meat eaters should substitute chicken and pork for beef and lanb?
