no, they're not

Yes, they are, unless you can make the argument that animal suffering and environmental destruction are good things.

[-] wakumul@lemm.ee -5 points 3 months ago

being vegan doesn't do anything about those

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

It reduces demand for meat, lowering production, ergo lowering environmental impact and animal suffering. Simple as.

It reduces demand for meat, lowering production

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago

there is not any way to prove such a claim, as you cannot prove a counterfactual.

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
