Intermittent fasting, good for health and keeps your weight down. I don't eat anything at all on Mondays

I have started to not eat anything on a Monday as well. I've also started trying to have less than 1500 calories every weekday, though I usually average between 1400 and 2000.
 
Many of the "savings" are not as clear as they are presented nor as ethical.
If all meat consumption stops, then all domestic livestock* in the World would need to be exterminated. How would you dispose of the carcasses? Burn them?

* except for animals used for milk, if milk production is still allowed.

* should the more rabid among the vegan population get their way we'd all be quaffing milk made from nuts and soya - tbf, I don't mind almond milk with my Weetabix, it's rank in coffee though :emoticon-0119-puke:
 
President TRump steak being a silly vegan sausage again, though from a country where many believe the earth is only 5000 years old and the big man in the sky will save them...

Make fun of creationists all you want, but you'd do well to not bash Christians. Besides, isn't that against the rules around here?

P.S. I'm smoking a 15-pound brisket this Saturday. You're welcome to come.

Odd argument
That wouldn’t happen at all
Even if Balkan’s kid stopped eating meat, Balkan wouldn’t. Therefore there would be no reason for a cull. There would be simply be a gradual decline in newly bred animals as more people stopped needing it.
Oh and of course there’s be no animals for dairy if people gradually stopped having dairy too

You need to think that through more thoroughly.
 
I would like to think they would see all the lies, not so sure though with all that is being pushed these days. "Stop eating meat to save the planet" binning the wood burning stove and flying less would have a greater and quicker effect.
I don’t think that’s actually correct to be honest
Could be wrong, but I think meat and dairy production is the biggest cause environmentally although that might be due to volume of water use as well as emissions
