    Sure but that’s not what’s happening here, they are lobbying to keep doing what they are doing now:

    Big meat companies and lobby groups are planning a large presence at the Cop28 climate conference, equipped with a communications plan to get a pro-meat message heard by policymakers throughout the summit…

    The files show how the world’s largest meat company, JBS, is planning to come out in “full force” at the summit, along with other big industry hitters such as the Global Dairy Platform and the North American Meat Institute…

    Members of the alliance have been asked to stick to key comms messages, which include the idea that meat is beneficial to the environment.

      Yeah it is terrible, I just wanted to sound a different signal from the all meat bad and never possible in the sustainable future.

      At the risk of sounding old, when I was a kid the world in terms of consumerism was vastly different. The change to our current reality happened quickly and therefor I’m not completely pessimistic about the possibility of this change continuing in a similar pace. Albeit this time the direction of the change should be set a little more specific.

      This is also the reason why this “lobbying” is so worrysome.

        We may be a similar age. I think you make a very good point, and it’s possible.
