Who's ready to give up beef?

It won’t happen in my lifetime.

California would first have to outlaw meat. They don’t even have the guts so you can forget about the rest of the planet.

Maybe we should start by auditing everybody’s life in terms of cars, travel, house(s), etc. my guess is most are doing far more damage with those items vs a hamburger.

We currently allow people to travel via planes and boats for no reason except pleasure. Think of all the carbon used on planes and cruise ships and all the concrete and infrastructure built to support them. Any you want to deny people a hamburger. Lol.

The rich will just travel to a place and eat meat away from the laws.
Fascist.

Musk and Tesla made a car better than a gas car. That’s why EV sales are growing. It wasn’t because some lefties decided to make gas illegal.

You want to get rid of beef? Make something that looks, chews, and tastes like it for less money.

Wasted focus.

Better? I dont know. Getting from A to B is the same. They are growing because the cost has come down and GM makes a cheaper EV than Musk.

Here's a quick glance at google when pulling up u.s. cattle revenue for 2022. When there is that much money involved you can bet on it not going anywhere for decades if ever. I'm betting on ever.

What was the market size of the Beef Cattle Production industry in the US in 2022? The market size, measured by revenue, of the Beef Cattle Production industry was $85.5bn in 2022.
 
Just run commercials showing the slaughterhouses. Do that for five years and see how much consumption is.

Which EV is that? The Bolt with its crappy range and slow charge rate and no longer making?

Or the $100k truck that you can’t actually buy yet?

Roflmao.

I have the hamburger patties on the counter ready to grill tonight. Not sure why, but looking at them made me think of this thread.

Definitely everyone who is cool with looking the other way while their neighbors and cousins in the border militias fire away at boats filled with refugees from underwater coastal cities where people had been living for centuries, definitely all those people should protest climate alarmism by setting their dinner meat out on the counter in the morning to show they won't be bullied into dietary restrictions.

The Bolt is cheaper. Charge rater is a bunch of crap. I have a PHEV and no thanks on that. My 110 is fine. Maybe its range isnt as good, but its more accessible for the average person. When I see someone in a Tesla, my first thought is "Pretentious".

No, you set it on the counter because you never grill cold beef.

The Bolt is no longer being made. Do you understand that?

A Tesla on a super charger gets 200 miles in 15 minutes. Do you understand that?

A Bolt on the best charger takes an hour to get 200 miles.

Not that it matters because Chevy KILLED IT.

When I see a Bolt, I picture a pissed off person that got F’ed by GM.

yeah, because incredibly inefficient use of land and resources for beef is rational....really....

Oh No Omg GIF by Apple TV+
This assumes that beef really is an inefficient use of land.

The studies that have been posted are based off guesses, not hard science.

In reality, cows are not all that inefficient, but when you shove hundreds into a feed lot, let their manure polute the water ways, and only feed them grains. This is inefficient.

Cows have the ability to live off the land without any input from humans and actually improving the environment by fertilizing the ground, spreading seeds, keeping weeds down, preventing overgrowth of trees.

This is the epitome of renewable energy.

Do you consider deer an inefficient use of land?
 
Is chicken bad for the environment? I've been eating more chicken.

How about Pork; or Tuna?

Thats a ridiculous analogy and low rent whataboutism. If you are talking about wild bovines in an eco system where their population is controlled by natural predators that is something totally different. Another way we F'd up the Iowa Ecosystem is taking out all the natural predators of deer. Of course, all in the name of Ag.

You just choose to dismiss the science. The NIH isnt basing things off guesses.

The NIH is also not always right. This is one of my biggest complaints about research. It is only as good as the people conducting it. It is very easy to push a specific agenda with research. It is impossible to factor in every detail when doing research. So what happens is you get research about a specific item that ignores the overall picture.

The predators are coming back to Iowa. Cougars and black bears.

I'll never cut out beef completely, I like taco's to much and a steak every few weeks. Eat a lot more chicken, pork and fish the older I get but I ain't cutting beef completely out.

On a side note lost 6 pounds in the last week. Weighing in a 6 foot 163 pounds this morning. DING!
JFC. Plural of taco is tacos, not taco’s. Tacos deserve better. Much better.

Thats BS and you know it. You dont like the conclusion of the science, so you question the credibility.

The data is freely publicly available. Just stop.
