Brits should only eat a burger once every 2 WEEKS to save the planet, climate scientist claims
Whether you have yours with pickles, extra cheese or covered in sauce, a burger can be one of the most satisfying meals to tuck into.
But people should limit their intake to one every two weeks to help curb climate change, according to an expert.
Paul Behrens, a British Academy Global Professor at the University of Oxford, claims Brits must cut down on their meat and dairy intake to help save the planet.
He argued that long–term climate change could make it impossible to grow food in a third of current production areas.
‘A shift to plant–rich diets in the UK would free an area almost the size of Scotland,’ he wrote on The Conversation.
Bugger off, wanker.
Consistent stress on the food system could even cause collapse, according to some experts, prompting civil unrest and riots.
‘This trajectory of climate–driven food price hikes – leading to social unrest and political decay – is not inevitable,’ Professor Behrens added.
‘The scientific consensus shows that the biggest opportunity we have for reducing food’s environmental impacts across many countries is increasing the amount of plants we eat and reducing meat and dairy intake.’
Once consensus is mentioned it’s no longer science.
Once a blogger types this…:
… it is no longer reason.
Scientific consensus educates policy makers. It’s not proven that smoking tobacco causes cancer, yet we have policies banning the sale to minors. We encourage restaurants to ban smoking.
In the USA we have beef prices at historical highs. We now have fewer cattle that at any time since the 50s
The average national price of ground beef is over 6 bucks per pound.exactly when is Trump’s Day One going to happen ?
Consensus means overwhelming agreement. That has been achieved. A theory in science means the best possible explanation of observed phenonoma, it also must withstand robust attack.
The current cattle herd is about 1/2 of what it was in 1975 even though US population has increased by 50%.
How many does it take to “dis-prove” a theory? One person with the proper data. Why not a consensus? Because the number agreeing or disagreeing is irrelevant.
Which brings to mind in 1931 when 100 authors wrote essays disputing Einstein’s theory of relativity. He reportedly said “Why 100? If I’m wrong it only takes one”.
