Weather Havoc: “We’ll cut back if we have to”

As fishing industries fail due to drought many will say, “We’ll just eat more beef.” But the worst drought in years is already having something to say about that, i.e., “Beef will be more expensive soon.”


Cutting back because we have to is better than no conservation at all. 

Because as the enormous industrialized meat industry shrinks, and prices rise, and serving sizes decrease, we’ll likely see a decrease in carbon emissions as well.
