(Before you start to argue: I happily eat meat but I'm willing to

it just means that the meat price goes down and someone else in my

From a carbon-emission standpoint, eating less meat is good. For
example, the Canadian government claims not eating meat every other
day saves around a quarter ton of carbon-emissions annually; not sure
if that counts methane with its carbon-equivalence or not...
I agree. I also try to eat "different" meat which doesn't produce as
much CO2, like lobster but I still haven't gotten my government to
subsidise this properly.

Lots of Greetings!
