(Bloomberg) -- The world’s most-developed nations will be told to curb their excessive appetite for meat as part of the first comprehensive plan to bring the global agrifood industry into line with the Paris climate agreement.Most Read from BloombergRussia Downs Drones Over Moscow in Ukrainian Retaliatory StrikeChina Says Multiple Pathogens Are Behind Spike in Respiratory IllnessesSodium in Batteries: Shift May Herald Another ShakeupMarkets Cheer as Milei Drops Dollarization for Macri BrassEvery
No, we just established that’s true. The farmers and slaughterers are paid by the grocery store, which is paid by the meat eaters. That’s where the money to abuse and kill animals comes from. If you don’t think they get their money from meat eaters, where do you think it comes from?
even vegans spend money at grocery stores.
Do you mean to say that grocery stores are spending money from vegan sales on meat orders to subsidize an area of the business that isn’t making them any money?

I’m saying grocery stores don’t keep a pile of money segregated that only-comes-from-and-is-only-spent-on vegan food. when the 4th of July rolls around, they stock up on hotdogs with whatever money is on hand.
I’m also saying your policy of not giving money to grocery stores just isn’t workable for most people.
Grocery stores keep budgets and expense reports. They downscale whatever products aren’t selling or making them money. It’s called running a business.
they may. I don’t get to decide how they make decisions or which ones they make.
But you get to influence which decisions are profitable. When you pay them money in exchange for dead animals, you create incentive for them to arrange for there to be more dead animals
they have free will. I don’t get to make their decisions for them.
Wow, you found a way to pay for corpses and somehow contrive yourself into not being responsible for the deaths
meat packers, I think.
You think the money that powers the meat industry comes from the pockets of meat packers?
oh yes. there are like 3 of em in the whole country.
rarely. most grocers have a supply company.
The farmers and slaughterers are paid by the supplier, who is paid by the grocery store, who is paid by the meat eaters.
as I said above, even vegans spend money at grocery stores.

as I said, they don’t segregate the vegan money: they spend what money they have on what they want to spend it on.
