[quote=Anonymous]If everyone stopped consuming meat today, what would happen to all of the chickens, turkeys, pigs, cattle, and other animals that are currently raised and slaughtered for food? Farmers and ranchers couldn’t afford to keep feeding and caring for them. Lots of people would lose their jobs — not just farmers and ranchers, but everyone involved in the meat supply chain. Are there currently enough plant based proteins in distribution for everyone to make the change simultaneously? We’d need to phase meat consumption out slowly. I’m not sure there’s any ethical justification for our continued heavy consumption of meat, but eating meat definitely played a significant role in human evolution and our corresponding increase in brain size, so once upon a time, it was very beneficial and therefore, we evolved eating meat. As a diabetic, I appreciate meat as a low carb food option.[/quote]
