I remember looking up plant based milk alternatives and being surprised how well almond milk does in environmental impact. I think it was battling oats and soy, and depending on the source, the first/second/third place were changing. Iirc the explanation was that you actually need really little almonds to make a liter of almond milk.

Rice, coconut, cashew etc all had a worse environmental impact, but of course, everything was better than cow’s milk.

(Mind you, it might have been that I used a German source for that, I’m going to try to look it up again.)

I’m a meat eater. I like meat. I consider myself someone who eats meat regularly. That means I eat, like, one slice of ham and 5 köttbular in a month. And I might treat myself to a salad with chicken breast in a restaurant when I manage to quiet down the voice in my head complaining about the chicken most likely not being farmed very well. Whenever I read a sentiment like “try to not eat meat 1 or 2 days in a week” I am reminded that there are really people out there who just, like, buy meat every single time they are in the grocery store and cook it daily. That seems so nuts to me.

I’m confused, this isn’t loss
