It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

Eating meat could become illegal in the future due to the damage caused to the environment, says a leading barrister calling for a new "ecocide" law.

Michael Mansfield QC says new legislation is needed to criminalise the "wilful destruction of nature", which he described as a "crime against humanity".

In a speech to be delivered at Labour's party conference in Brighton on Monday, Mr Mansfield will say: "I think when we look at the damage eating meat is doing to the planet it is not preposterous to think that one day it will become illegal.

It was just a matter of time before the Vegan mafia decided to have a go at meat eaters.

This country in 20/30 years time will be the dullest place on earth to live. You won’t be able to say anything in case it offends someone, you won’t be able to travel anywhere in case it pollutes everywhere and now you will only be able to eat dust and leaves 😂😂😂

Re: It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

basically yes, cows produce by far the most methane per pound of protein

MrSnoogans yes fair dos but that would imply that continuing to. eat say chicken or turkey but cutting out beef would mean i was still doing my bit?

Re: It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

consuming protein burns more calories than consuming fat or carbs.
maybe we should consume more meat instead of trying to ban it?

Its the highly unsustaible amount of energy needed to farm beef. not the methane that evryone on here keep banging on about.

The large amount of water (which we have little of) needed to create the large amount of feed that then then needs to be transported to feed the cows which then produce relativly little meat for the effort put into it. Its something like 1Kg of beef needs 16kg of feed, i dont know of the top of my head.

thats why eating less beef is a good way to help save the environment.

Does your friend realise that cows produce milk as well as beef? If everyone because vegetarian I’m pretty sure there would still be a need for cows

Darlo Debs 10:37 Tue Sep 24
Re: It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

Genuine question, is it all meat that is the problem? I was under the impression it was mainly beef due to the amount of cows needed and the methane they produce?

Re: It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

Eating meat once a week twice at worst is all that is needed and not too much of it either ban processed rubbish not meat once that is done less cows will be needed for supply.

All these wankers do is make me more hungry for meat by talking about it

Sydney,
It starts off that way, then it starts to seep into society, then it becomes the accepted way of thinking for many, then laws pass to support it.

These people that write this type of dribble are all about attention seeking and self importance, gives them a great big hard on I expect.

Re: It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

I have a friend who is a vegetarian and he once told me that if we are all compelled to become vegetarians or vegans then animals such as cows, pigs, sheep, etc, will only be seen in zoos, as there will be no further need to farm them.

He is not militant by any means and respects those who choose to eat meat.

Re: It was just a matter of time but here it comes.

So we stop eating meat. Does that mean fewer cows? We going to destroy the surplus? If we don't destroy them, the methane emissions won't reduce. If we do destroy them, what happens to the MILK production?

Like most things connected with the Labour party, this is a total losd of old bollocks.
