Arguments Can Hurt Animals in the Real World

Advocates often promote arguments that appear, to us, to be anti-meat. But how the arguments appear to us is less than irrelevant. 

The only thing that matters is how an argument actually plays out in the real world.

This video shows how concern for global warming is causing more chickens to suffer and die.


As Nobel Laureate Herb Simon pointed out, people don't seek to find the perfect solution. They look for something that is "good enough." And when we make an argument where red meat is the worst and a certain form of veganism is the best, the vast majority of people choose somewhere in the middle. And this almost always means eating many more birds.
