    You know that you can take fish out of rivers or the sea, don’t you? Humanity have done so for thousands of years, without liberating CO2 in the process.

    Who are you to tell some guy that take a fishing rod and go to the coast and take a couple of fish for dinner that he is polluting the atmosphere for not eating a plant instead?

      Well, if you just eat the chickens of your garden then I guess you don’t eat much meat. Actually you are probably almost vegan.

        I do support a great reduction in meat consumption indeed. But I think that in some cases there isn’t an issue in eating meat, specially in rural environments.

        For our current population everybody eating meat all the time is, obviously, unsustainable.

      And yet there’s still a carbon cost attached to eating said fish because you have to catch it. Plants always have a lower cost

      Regardless most aren’t catching their own fish and are eating farmed fish.

        That statement is not supported by fact or logic, it’s irrational. You are in a dogma. This is useless.

        It’s like arguing with a religious person “God exist” is their argument, and that’s it. This is the same. So, sorry, I’m out.

          Says the guy who can’t understand the carbon cost of an animal is higher than a plant whose energy comes from the sunlight.
