1. It's fascinating to see, as you can from the responses to the post below, how many daft things people believe, to justify their continued meat eating. So let's examine a few of the common myths in the following thread. 🧵

George Monbiot @georgemonbiot.bsky.social · 4d

For years, there's been a massive over-emphasis on food miles, and a massive under-emphasis on food type.
By far and away the best dietary decision you can make, for environmental, humanitarian and public health purposes, is to cut out animal products.

Veganism has faded partly because consumers want *protein*, but a Greggs vegan sausage roll has more protein than a meat one.

A Cambridge study that, if you label sausage rolls for their protein content, the % of consumers choosing meat-free more than doubles: www.eurekalert.org/news-release...

Heard Helen on the radio this morning talking about this and was immediately envious of the piece, the commission and the assignment. It doesn't disappoint.

The world’s largest meat producer, JBS, avoided paying up to $442 million in taxes between 2019 and 2022. Their tactics have poised them for global dominance, but at what cost?

Sadly her remains were disturbed in the years before by macabre souvenir hunters, one of whom stole the poor woman's skull, which remained in St Andrew's Uni for many years.

A photo was taken that allowed forensic artists at Dundee Uni to reconstruct her face in 2017.

Everything the meat and dairy industries are doing to human health and the environment are being projected onto UPFs, which never even seem to include the examples of bacon/hot dogs or other animal-based UPFs.

In La Paz County Arizona, like 80% of the state, there are few restrictions on groundwater use.

We went to investigate why the desert is running dry, and who stands to profit.

Terrible headline on a good article. It’s the world’s taste for MEAT that’s fuelling Amazon destruction. The soya is cattle feed.

Because 95% of us still eat animal products, so most people feel very defensive about it and are quietly complicit.
