I know eating meat and animal products are horrible for the environment, but it isn't really something I think I could give up. As an athlete, I think animal products are one of the best protein wise and for building muscle, but for example: it takes 3,000 litres of water to make a single burger. This is really bad for the environment and is definitely not sustainable, but personally think plant alternatives and beyond meat just cant really replace it.

Many people can relate to this. Meat is something that is just hard to stay away from. It serves its purpose at every meal. However, I think one should try to limit their intake on animal products to just what they need. Despite these efforts, it is still very difficult to figure out how to stay away from it. When considering the effects of consuming meat, it emits, mostly, the greenhouse gas methane. On top of this, there are more problems eating meat bring to the environment. What people can do is limit the amount of meat they can consume to something more reasonable and try to opt for something else when given the opportunity.

I agree that many people relate to not giving up meat. Even though I think people should try to limit their animal intake to what they need, and most people do. However, it still contributes to their carbon footprint, and sometimes consuming meat can't be avoided, as it's many people's main source of protein. I like the idea of trying to eat something else when given the option, or switching to animals that produce less methane, like chicken, as an alternative.

Since eating meat is such a big part in many peoples diet it makes sense that staying away from meat can be hard. Especialy since meat has a lot of protein in it not getting the protein you need from meat can be very bad while growing. Also since many people grew up eating meat its hard to break out of the habit of eating meat. I know eating meat is very bad for the environment but not beef alternatives still have a long way to go before they fully replace meet.

I can relate to this topic. Meat is just something that is too important to just get rid of. But, we can limit the amount of meat we consume. Like substituting chicken for beef. As cattle use more than 60% of the worlds agricultural land. Cows also produce methane, a gas that is equivalent to 12 carbon molecules. It's always best to choose a better alternative. We don't need to go full on vegetarian is what I'm saying. Just limiting our consumption of meat or switching to a better alternative like chicken as I stated earlier, will greatly lower the amount of carbon produced.
