Most people who go vegetarian find its very very little effort to be 90% vegetarian after a year or so. To me this warns against the view that people will give extra because “they haven’t made the sacrifice of becoming veggie”. Very soon the sacrifice becomes a habit and the claim that charitable donations are affected becomes even less plausible.
I’d be interested to know if anyone has given more money because of this thread. I know that i’m more willing to eat diary products and have read others saying it made them happier eating meat.
