That's not at all what I said. The meat Industry already exists and is scaled profitable, even if it's terrible for our planet.
I said to get any scale of another version, it's going to have to be as equally profitable or corporations are not going to go for it.
Sustainable, scalable and profitable.
I am 100% in that category. I have some aspirations to be in a lifestyle where I catch a lot of my own fish but zero desire to move off animal protein to a vegetarian lifestyle.
I don't disagree with your general sentiment, but what I see as responses here are often empty responses... Just the obvious "we should stop being terrible arbiters of our planet". Like no shit, but it's hard and MOST humans are not gonna ever be vegan/vegetarian unless forced.
My point is, you try to... I try to also, but in the dead of winter there's no a local fruit and veggies. I'm also not vegan/vegetarian, I eat meat. Fish, and chicken primarily but I don't raise either, so I have to rely on someone else to do that for me.
We do actually get probably half our eggs from someone at my wife's work, and some. fruits and vegetables at the farmers market down the street in the summer. But they're closed now and have been most of winter.
It's harder than just saying "just stop" was my point. I'd love to be part of the solution where I can but there's zero chance of me not eating meat if it's available.
Curious about your diet, and where you get your food? Also curious how that scales to 350 million people (to feed the US)?
I'm not remotely implying what we're doing, as a society, is right or sustainable but it's super easy to just say "Just stop doing bad things".
Solutions, at scale are quite complicated and nuanced. Private companies that grow our food at scale now will only participate if it's profitable.
Also, if you're not sustainably growing your own food, are you not just like the rest of us (Part of the problem)? I know I don't have the land, or time to grow my own food.
Sticking our head in the sand (current administration) is definitely not gonna turn out well, so I'm guessing there's some fun times ahead!
I used to love track days on my 600. Passing the 1ks in turn 1 after they went zooming by on the straight :)
I raced a couple years and have had the pleasure of visiting a number of tracks within a few 100 miles of Cincinnati, Ohio (Mid Ohio, Grattan, Pitt, Putnam, Nashville Speedway, Autobahn)... This was back in the mid 2000s
Been able to get back to a few of them on 4/wheels the last few years too.
So much fun!
I raced a 2004 Suzuki GSXR600. Belows a picture before it was turned full race (at Deals Gap / Tail of the Dragon) in Tennessee /North Carolina.
Man I loved that bike!
On street or track? If track, which one? I miss getting all done up in my leathers and ripping on my sport bike(s)
I second this...
I moved from YNAB4 -> nYNAB -> YNAB4 -> Actual Budget... Not going back. I would like a native android app, but outside that all's good.
Make elon (Tesla) accountable for accidents/deaths, and I bet they'll either disable it or make it work (which I think is a long way off).
Straight up heartbreaking...
These things probably need to figure out how to get the word out about them before they're actively happening.
I don't feel like I'm blocking any community that would post this and Lemmy isn't big enough to miss something that gets any traction, but this is the second "nationwide" protest that seems to have no lead up that I've run across.
The unfortunate world we live in
