    Take a look at the Cargill family, 14 billionaires. From the wiki about the current CEO:

    In 2019, former U.S. Congressman Henry A. Waxman, in a report by Mighty Earth, called Cargill “the worst company in the world” and noted that it drives “the most important problems facing our world” (deforestation, pollution, climate change, exploitation) “at a scale that dwarfs their closest competitors.”

    Do you think that is because they use every cent to burn coal and oil in their backyard, or

    do you think it is because they produce and sell products to consumers which can not be produced without harm to the environment?

    99% of the planet could produce zero pollution for the rest of our lives and it wouldn’t even make a dent in the amount of pollution created by the billionaire class.

    How do you think they would create that damage to the environment if nobody would buy their products?









  • Right, but ‘steak’ does mean a little more than that. It also would indicate a particular kind of cut of meat, which would generally indicate minimal connective tissue, tenderness, location, etc.

    So as long as it has “steak” written on it you just care that is any animal with those properties?

    Would you like ‘meat-free’ labels allowed on foods that had absolutely no muscle-tissue content, but did contain animal organ, bone, and fat content?

    I want a strong indicator that a product contains any animal products. There are already many labels for plant based products but none are required by any law.
