Something tasting nice isn't a good reason to subsidize a destructive industry.

There's less harmful and still great tasting alternatives.

Trees are nice, we should have more trees everywhere.
Planting trees isn't gonna solve the climate crisis and shouldn't be sold as a solution like it sometimes is.

Having to register to be able to vote is so silly to begin with.

"The 50-year-old is at least the fifth environmental campaigner to be jailed on tax evasion charges in the last two years as Vietnam’s authoritarian government steps up a crackdown on activists."

Seems legit..

We can probably assume that microplastics are everywhere at this point

Go vegan

More empathy == not caring that people are needlessly killing animals for taste pleasure?

Why would losing the empathy be the next step?

It's not just the eating behavior of others, it's needless killing of living beings purely for enjoyment, that's not something that should just be accepted.

If everyone went plant based we would need much much less farmland and thus need way less fertilizer.

You're a silly goober aren't ya?

???

What are you even trying to communicate?

So what you're saying is.. just one more lane?

Calm the fuck down bud, I said nothing ableist at all.

You said "You personally not using something, doesn't mean others don't" and the whole tone of your comment sounds like you're against getting rid of straws.

Yes straws isn't single-handedly destroying the planet but not giving out needless plastic with every drink is still good.

Yes some people will still need straws, no one said "FUCK DISABLED PEOPLE, NO STRAWS FOR YOU" and when talking about general problems and solutions like this we all know there will be exceptions.

Bringing up fringes cases and making it sound like a general counter argument is silly.

And no I don't eat sea food or any other animals and yes I tell other people to stop too :)

huh?

Because food/restaurants/quick stops currently give out straw we can't make them stop giving out straws? That makes no sense lol.

Please stop bringing up fringe cases when talking about general problem, they could still have straws but the default is no straw, people that need it ask, or people that need straws could bring their own straws.

It's silly to use this to justify a straw coming with every drink ever.

Chevron is extremely evil

Eh, there's been thousands upon thousands of expert yelling about this for decades and no government listened,

climate change is benefiting younger generations how exactly?

So you don't want them to fight against climate change?

You have no clue what these specific people have done in their life, maybe they've always been activists.

Even if they were somehow involved in creating the problem then wouldn't it be a good thing for them to turn around and fight against it?

..what? that's just nonsense.

Protein is difficult to get when cutting meat out of your diet.

It really isn't, it's weird that this myth is still going strong.

Plants have plenty of protein.

Consider donating to rewilding projects like https://www.mossy.earth/

If people keep flying there from all over the world it will get even worse, causing their own downfall.

Why do I want protein in my ice cream?
Why are they talking about it like it's normal and I should know what protein in ice cream does?
I've never heard protein mentioned in the context of ice cream, vegan or not.

Those corporations get their money from people like you.

Yes regulation would be the best to stop them but you know that's not gonna happen any time soon, especially when everyone refuses to change their own habits, politicians aren't gonna force through regulations that get people angry because they want their steaks.

Why do you want to continue to participate in something bad until it's legally not allowed anymore?
Why not do what you can while also advocating for regulation and political change?

What does holding evil corporations accountable look like if not refusing to give them your money?

They are replying to you and the other person is OP.

How about responding to the stats?

I do kinda like it but put actual speed reduction measures in place!

Speed bumps?

Narrower streets?

Roundabout?

Stop signs?

Why do you think it's braindead and disconnected from reality to want people to be able to live without a car?

Humans should go vegan because paying for animals to be killed for your tastebuds is wrong.

This is nothing new, we've known this for a long long time, go vegan.

Environmental Impacts of Food Production

Give full vegan a try, it's not as hard as you imagine.

I'm gonna guess he eats plants

It's incredibly frustrating how people who easily can change their destructive habits absolutely refuse..

Sustainable eating is cheaper and healthier - Oxford study

No car is better and cheaper than electric.

Animal products are incredibly harmful to the climate and are inherently wasteful.

Why not do what you can (stop consuming animal products) while also advocating for regulation and political change?
