    In theory this kind of article could convice people to go vegan by showing how much good it would do. Well, in theory, the articles goes on like “Scientists agree: Let’s not do that.”.

      Some workers might be drawn into agriculture to grow more crops like legumes. That shift in labor, some researchers hypothesize, could slow economic growth by pulling people out of more profitable industries.

      Economic growth is more important than the climate. Also, what. If in theory everyone went vegan (which is what the article hypothesises), how would meat be a more profitable industry.

        It’s a stupid point anyway workers are going to go to whoever pays the most. If you want to keep them in the more profitable industries pay better.
