Elephant in the room: cowspiracy

What is the biggest pollutant across the globe? What sector? What industry?

The military, with their tanks, planes, and aircraft carriers? Electronics? Nope.

The greatest global contributor of GHGs is animal agriculture. I've linked to an infographic that always blows my mind.

The abolition of capitalism will save the workers, but to save the environment, we must stop the insanity of animal agriculture. If you are considering alternatives to how factory farming is done, then you're right, there are a LOT of things that could change. And honestly, the single best resource for this topic is a Netflix documentary I saw recently.

I encourage you all to watch Cowspiracy. I never watch videos people link on here, but please give it a shot. In my own words, I'll briefly introduce it: chronicles the story of a devout environmentalist in the USA who was stunned when he learned - like you just have - that animal agriculture was the greatest global contributor to pollution. But this guy is a hardcore treehugger, and is like 30. How the hell did he just learn this? He is a member of "green" groups, but eating animals is never talked about. This dirty secret, i.e. that animal agriculture is never discussed in green advocacy groups, is the "cowspiracy" behind their controlled opposition to environmental destruction. They ask you to drive a hybrid and recycle your plastic straws, but never question the business that is literally slashing and burning the fucking amazon rainforest.

If you do not have Netflix, I can let you "borrow" a copy ;)
