@BrownHairedEevee Itās Foerās argument that in order to really have a positive impact on the climate crisis individuals will need to choose to make lifestyle changes. He argues that true, lasting climate change wonāt be achieved through renewable energy, electric cars, carbon taxes, etc., but rather through what we choose to eat. That by not eating animal products for (at least) breakfast and lunch we can bring about exponentially more benefit to the environment than any of the other āpopularā things combined. The āpopularā solutions will help, but if we donāt change the way we eat, they wonāt help enough in time. I thought the book was rather engaging, and I appreciated his honesty when talking about his personal challenges to make different food choices. Iām curious who else may have read it and what their take on it is, because his arguments make a lot of sense to me.
