And eat beef every day.

Who cares if a small burger pollutes more than commuting with a SUV.

I mean, it's just hard to care or do something, these things should be properly taxed, but there's no chance this would be popular.

But it feels we're powerless beyond minor examples we can set something everyday.

Can you give some references basing that?

I would like to educate myself a bit (I'm a vegetarian myself)

I think it often gets overlooked that effective carbon taxing would tax you right out of pretty much all modern convenience. Which would be the point, but people would fuckin revolt if it actually happened. Parent is complaining about 0.00000000001% of the damage done over the last 100 years.

The beef is not the source of this.

Ruminant meat is the best food there is for humans. (i eat daily as part of ketovore diet)
