Look into going vegan, it's an even more impactful step that someone can personally make.
going vegan has no impact at all
Do you have any sources for that? Literally have no idea how you come to that conclusion
can you tell me what year you went vegan? feel free to point to it on this chart.

I'm not sure what you think that proves. World population has grown and people eat more animal products than ever, which is part of my argument that we should be cutting back on animal products and eat more humane and more efficient food sources.
Thanks for linking to proof of my point.
whatever your excuse is, being vegan hasn't helped any animals
How do you figure? Genuinely don't know how you could come to that conclusion.
Also, why are you arguing so aggressively about me being vegan? Sounds like denial or guilt for killing animals that you don't have to tbh
I don't care if you are vegan, but don't lie to yourself or others about whether it makes any difference
no fewer animals are killed than before you became vegan.
If everyone went vegan, do you think the number of animals killed would stay the same? This is like a blend of "voting doesn't matter" and "abolitionists have no effect since the slave population has grown every year."
abolitionists free slaves. where are the animals you've saved?
