my biggest take-away from our current covid-crisis, and now this event (let's hope it doesn't grow into a full-fletched pandemic, I'm really done with those for now) is simply that I believe we've really reached a scaling limit in regards to our global meat production.

We'll see more and more of those zoonoses in the near future if we don't get that under control. In addition, eating meat day in and day out simply isn't healthy either. I'm afraid it's one of those habits that we as a species really need to cut down on.

I've tried eating less over the past year, and while I do miss eating meat occasionally, I really didn't find it too difficult to stop consuming.
