Substituting half of animal products could “almost fully halt” the conversion of forests and natural land for agriculture.

    Yeah and if we eliminate animal enterprises altogether it would be much better. Go vegan.

      I thought this kind of inflammatory behaviour would stay on reddit, guess I was wrong about that

      You’re only creating your own devide, live and let live and do not harass others online

      Your not going to convert everyone to vеgаnism and trying to force that won’t help you at all

      People who choose to become vegan will go vegan and people who choose not to wont

      People need to understand that we’re all people of different backgrounds and a better (solarpunk) future has room for all of them

        So tired of hearing these stupid arguments. I doubt you are any of those communities and when was the last time any serious vegans spent their time telling people living in poverty to stop subsistence hunting in the wilderness. But keep it up with your sad little cognitive dissonance protecting whataboutism and convenient moral relevatism.

            Classic “I won’t change my behavior unless everyone else does too” comment. Keep doing you!

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
