Germans are also eating less meat than at any time since records began in 1989. German Agriculture Ministry data shows that meat consumption had dropped to 52kg (115 pounds) per person in 2022. In 2017, the amount was 61kg (134 pounds).

Fuck that's still wayy too high to avert the climate crisis.

I think it's too late by now anyway. Let them eat meat, we are no longer the fittest species
