“I alone can’t change anything” is a hastily spoken excuse to shift responsibility onto others. But you are responsible for your life and your actions.
Nothing I personally do will have an effect on climate change. If you want to argue for people to not eat meat, fine. But blaming them for the climate worsening because they eat meat is placing the blame on the wrong party and is not going to convince people. There are other and better arguments.
I can blame more than one party, no problem! Politics must change, the economy must change, and society as well. Since you and me are part of the population, let’s please change too! Politics will follow suit if we are serious.
Beans, rice, tofu, lentils, mushrooms, chickpeas, nuts, seeds, many options and they’re all cheaper than flesh, and healthier for you and better for the environment.
Choose one of those, and use the extra money to donate towards something that will undermine those capitalist trash.
I see, so doing something about it is the responsibility of consumers, not the companies who do it.
Capitalism means companies aren’t gonna do shit, but you’ve got a choice to not participate in a flawed system.
I’m not one to tell people what to do, but pretending that someone else doing a bad thing justifies another bad thing…
Go ahead and refuse to participate. There’s nothing wrong with that. Just don’t expect it to have a significant climate impact.

Both. But one you can change right now. At your next meal just choose vegan.
Which means either be rich or live a life eating nothing but beans and rice.

Extra money. Donate. Must be nice to be rich. By the way, people who aren’t rich can often work two jobs. When do you think they have time to cook?
Moving the goalpost much? First it is not the consumers fault, then it is too expensive and now you do not even have time to cook?
