Many understands that oil companies had a massive disinformation campaign to discredit climate change science. Yet few understand that animal agriculture has done exactly the same. To say plant based diets are more environmentally taxing than animal based is like saying windmills and solar are the true cause of climate change.
I'm not telling anyone what to do, but the data is has been shown many times, in many ways, by many studies. To be a climate change skeptic goes hand-in-hand with being an environmental vegan skeptic.
