Methane - mEat responsibly?


#1

Zero Carb vs Zero Carbon is a false dichotomy, I think.

We are what we ate ate, burped, and farted. Food responsibility?

As a counter information source, what about the ‘Carbon Cycle’ that is not based on fossilised sunlight release (fossil fuels), and supports carbon into soil re-sequestration?

What we consume leads us to choices.

The first clip was made by one of my favourite animation studios. It doesn’t match my biases.

That whole methane thing is very complex. I followed people on Twitter who discuss that, and it’s often portrayed as one thing by anti-cow people, but the actuality is quite a bit different.

Not sure where is the truth regarding the impact of life stock on the planet.

But this maybe a solution.

Thanks @Alpha Omar . Thought provoking. “Clean meat” (they already coined a marketing term) from tissue cell culture techniques breaks the dichotomy of real meat and vegan meat. To me, that’s a good thing. Biology and ethics need be complex and cover huge variety to result in a human survival investment portfolio.

Technology and meat production concerns me because it seems disconnected. Like a mechanistic biological action at a cellular level does not always translate to a complete explanation of whole organism disease or health.

I do love the science and philosophy frisson that occurs when humans are humans and we question what we eat and why.
