Here's an interesting thought experiment for meat-eaters:

Why not stop eating beef?

your response might be a knee-jerk "but I really like it!". Everyone knows the huge environmental costs we are responsible for when eating meat. But it's really interesting to pursue the tension in your own personal logic-brain vs lizard want-it-brain.

I've stopped eating most refined sugar and massively cut down on meat in the past few years. But the mental battles I had with myself in the process were surprising.
