Meat, fish from overfished oceans, plantations from pesticides and deforestation.
Guess ill starve
For anyone unaware, deforestation is driven by animal agriculture. In fact, most of the crops grown are for animal feed. It’s inefficient, and the more efficient we make it, the crueler it is for the animals.
Eating plants will definitely do the least harm.
Sucks, but that will provide decades of benefits for the rest of us
Don't worry, we're all gonna starve. The rich are making sure of it. It'd really only take one of the super rich to choose to do good instead of evil and literally save the whole world, but humans, evidently, just don't make good people.
I'm just just curious, what do you think Elon Musk(or whoever is the richest person in the world at this point) could do to save the whole world?
Socialism but with more steps, more then likely.
And itd still be a drop in the bucket compared to government spending.
Also,not everything can be solved by throwing money at it
Isn't it impossible for a Capitalist to individually transition to Socialism, no matter how powerful, unless they had an economic monopoly? They could transition their own businesses to worker self-management and ownership, but that's it.
