What most people forget is that pollution comes from the basic need of survival and improving life quality. So you need efficiency and balance what matters for most humans.
Instead of forcing everyone to become vegan and to stop flying, how about supporting the industries that create artificial meat cheaper than the real thing and airplanes that run on electricity? (both of these things already exist nowadays)
I was saying everybody turning vegan and stopping flying entirely wouldn't be enough.
Flying on electricity and lab grown meat still use a lot of energy compared to not having those.
You're actually making my point really well. Extreme measures aren't enough, so why not do less than that? Nobody wants to give up their quality of life. Especially not sufficiently to stop climate change.
Don't see a problem in using more energy. There is already nuclear power since decades, just use it.
Well this time it's a lot worse because not using CFCs had a comparatively small impact on the world economy, with a big payoff.
There is currently no realistic path to keep somewhat decent living standards for the number of people we have, while ramping down the world economy sufficiently to battle global warming.
Even if everybody turned vegan and stopped flying it wouldn't be enough.
