And not eating red meat is even better! I feel like a common misconception is that you have to cut it entirely, but I just limit myself to like, one burger a month, if any.

I think we all also need to remember that the main cause of climate change and everything is the companies, the billionaires, the people who don’t have to live with these consequences. not the person eating a cheeseburger

Yup! But a lot of these carbon footprint discussions don’t mention that just needless hyperconsumerism is the overarching culprit. Like using AI, eating a ton of red meat, driving everywhere (when carpooling, public transit, or walking is an option), buying needless stuff online, etc. We need a mindset shift to step away from wasteful and destructive hyperconsumerism (paired with renewable energy implementation and broad sustainable resource management)

True. There’s many effective ways to reduce carbon footprint, but not using a very recent technology when you don’t have to is definitely the easiest thing to do right now rather than changing your whole lifestyle, which takes a decent amount of time and effort
