I think you’re right about the reality of how people weigh up giving up meat vs donating. Many people would rather sacrifice a small amount of money than give up meat (as shown in your example). I suppose the best that we can do, in terms of advocacy, is encouraging people to do both or, failing that, one or the other. On paper, it’s possible that donating could look more impactful, but it can be hard to accurately summarise the impact of a social movement in numbers, especially when it’s still quite early days.
