i know for a fact that a meat eater died ten years ago. since then, the meat production has only risen. i could literally die and never buy another animal product, and it would not change the industry.

Of course spending trends affect the market. Meat processing facilities are slowly closing all over.

Not that this bullshit, empty-headed comment warranted a reply.

Meat processing facilities are slowly closing all over.

it's probably just firm consolidation, not a decrease in production.

owid

I would never click a link from a bad faith arguement in my life. The meat industry is hurting and you're a weak little pawn.

Edit: the user commie is, at best, a troll. The graph they have shown for meat production is simply a reflection of the growing world population. Meat is hurting and the people who work that industry aren't doing well, as in this fellow.

our world in data is a vast resource paid for by the FAO, which itself is paid for by the UN. if you don't want to trust CIA propaganda, i tend to agree, but i don't know of any other resource that totals agricultural output globally.

it's just a chart. i don't know why you're afraid.

your accusation of bad faith is, itself, bad faith.
