[QUOTE="topground, post: 7698559, member: 556"] Posted elsewhere. The mantra repeated by the BBC and other lazy journalists repeating vegan and animal rights activists lies about ruminants being responsible for global warming have damaged the credibility of scientists arguing for action on global warming. I have yet to find any of the wide range of my acquaintances who believe the nonsense that we have to eat less meat and dairy to save the planet. The reason is that they have all been taught about the carbon cycle in basic science. This is reflected in beef and lamb prices holding up. There has been no reduction in demand. The problem that the BBC line has caused is that folk don’t believe scientists and any other sensible actions that individuals could take such as reducing air travel, making clothes and consumables generally last longer are largely ignored. In the mean time huge marketing budgets are being spent by big corporations to persuade the masses to buy shite they don’t need with money they don’t have to impress people they don’t particularly like. None of the so called world leaders are prepared to admit that reducing the birth rate across the world is the only real answer. Coupled with the hypocrisy of world leaders flying in to Glasgow with their entourages to talk about how the rest of us must change our lives leads me to believe there is no real answer to the problem and nature will take its course.
