If you're worried about global warming, eat one less burger than you already do a week/month/year. It'll do way more good than taking a shower so short your pits still reek.

Ultimately, the point of this is to highlight current dairy-meat industry faults. If appeasing a moral compass won't work, perhaps a deep-dive on the global consequences of the cruel and unsustainable industrial practices will help align some of you to at least try and consume less animal products.

None of this means plant-based systems would eliminate conflict. Wars are driven by politics, power, resources, and history. But reducing resource intensity, lowering dependence on fragile supply chains, and feeding more people per acre all make food systems more resilient in a turbulent world.

A plant-food system could reduce some geopolitical pressure points. Feed imports tie many countries to global trade routes & a small number of exporting regions. When routes are disrupted, food systems become vulnerable. Producing more food directly for people locally reduces that dependency.

141

There’s also the land. Large areas of land around the world are dedicated to grazing or growing feed crops. Shifting diets toward plants would free significant agricultural land that could be used more flexibly for food production or ecosystem restoration. Flexibility matters in unstable times.

Livestock also concentrates risk. Animals need continuous feed deliveries and stable infrastructure. If supply chains break, animals cannot simply "pause" production - they must keep eating every day. Crops stored for human consumption are far easier to stockpile and distribute during crises.

That matters during conflict. Wars disrupt fertilizer, fuel, shipping, and trade routes. A system that requires fewer inputs per calorie is naturally more stable when those systems are stressed. Plant foods generally require far less feed, water, and energy than animal products.

A plant-based food system removes a major layer of inefficiency. Today, huge amounts of crops aren’t eaten by people - they’re grown as animal feed. When you remove the middle step (animals), the same land and grain can feed far more humans directly.

Plant-based food systems aren’t just about ethics for animals. They’re also about resilience - feeding more people with fewer resources, fewer chokepoints, and fewer systems that break when the world shakes.

184

But moments like this also expose a deeper question. If conflict on the other side of the world can ripple into milk prices and feed shortages… maybe our food system is more fragile than we want to admit.

So when war disrupts supply chains, governments often rush to stabilize industries like dairy and meat. Public money flows toward keeping that system afloat rather than transforming it.

This is something vegans have been pointing out for years: A food system built around animals is inherently vulnerable. It multiplies the resources needed to feed people. More land. More grain. More fuel.

Animal agriculture sits right in the center of that fragility. Dairy especially depends on huge inputs: feed crops, fertilizer, water, transport, refrigeration, subsidies. It’s a very resource-heavy way to produce calories. When global systems strain, dairy strains with them.

War doesn’t just destroy cities. It reshapes food. When conflict erupts anywhere in the world - shipping routes tighten, fuel prices jump, fertilizer becomes unstable. The entire global food system feels it. 👇🏼 a thread. #war #geopolitics #veganism

I wonder how many neglected tropical diseases will suddenly have cures within years of reaching northern populations. 🙄 Cures & vaccines they'll then charge impoverished communities that suffered the most from NTDs. Fuck. Capitalism.

Bought this painting at goodwill today and I’m gonna fill it with animal crossing villagers. Donate at least $50 to the campaign below and put your favorite villager in the “dedicated to” field and I’ll add it to the painting until I run out of room.

#Sows are kept in a continuous cycle of impregnation and giving birth spending the majority of their lives in farrowing & gestation crates. When her production drops she'll be sent to slaughter at about 2 years old. Pigs naturally live 15+ years. Choose #vegan over cruelty: Challenge22.com 🌱

Nice opinion on trans people, did a billionaire pedophile give it to you?

Maybe Liam is too wee yet for Spider-Verse, but I ❤️ Miles Morales and Nueva York is covered in snow too! Much thanks to @julioanta.bsky.social for the translation so that I could include both spideys. #Comics4Liam FREE THE CHILDREN!!! Shutter forever these evil detention centers; ABOLISH ICE.

Some worry we don't have enough land to accommodate more plant-based diets. Actually, if the entire world went vegan, we'd need *less* cropland. Why? Because a lot of it goes toward making feed for livestock, and animals are inefficient convertors of plant energy to meat energy: 🐓 13%, 🐖 9%, 🐄 3%.

So yeah :) I’m black, native, trans, vegan, and loud about it. Not to be palatable. Our history, survival, and the planet demand honesty. 10/10

Black veganism isn’t purity politics. It’s remembering that liberation was never meant to be compartmentalized. Food. Land. Labor. Bodies. Futures. All connected. 9/10

1147

Caring about animals does NOT compete with human liberation. The same system that brutalizes animals industrially also polices, cages, exploits, and disposes of black bodies. 8/10

Land Back isn’t symbolic. When indigenous people reclaim land, food sovereignty follows: traditional crops, restored ecosystems, and non-extractive relationships with animals and earth. 7/10

So when I say I’m black and vegan, I’m talking about refusing poisoned systems. Not policing people’s plates, but naming who profits from harm. 6/10

175

Environmental racism is not abstract. CAFOs, landfills, toxic runoff, and polluted water are disproportionately placed near black and native communities. That’s documented. That’s intentional. 5/10

131

Fast forward: Slaughterhouses and factory farms are overwhelmingly staffed by black, indigenous, immigrant, undocumented, and disabled workers, exposed to injury, trauma, and COVID at obscene rates. 4/10

After emancipation, black communities were pushed into sharecropping and later food deserts, while meat + dairy were marketed as "progress" and "strength." That wasn’t nutrition science, surprise! It was capitalism. 3/10

Meat wasn’t industrial. It wasn’t daily. It wasn’t extracted through violence-for-profit. Enslaved Africans were intentionally given low-quality rations like cornmeal, scraps, and salted meat all while being cut off from land and traditional crops. Food control was a tool of domination. 2/10

It's Black History Month. Let me be clear: black veganism isn't a trend, a diet, or white wellness cosplay. It's rooted in survival, resistance, land, and care. Before colonization, many African & indigenous foodways were plant-forward by necessity and balance. 1/10

282

Because justice for animals should never mean abandonment of workers. Liberation should be collective: human, nonhuman, and ecological. 🌍💚

The real question isn't: "Will people lose jobs?" It's: "Will we build a system that catches them when industries evolve?"

100

A vegan future isn't no jobs. It's different jobs, ones that don't rely on systemic suffering.

140

And for individuals leaving animal ag: • Paid retraining programs • Union-backed transitions • Government-supported job guarantees • Cooperative farm ownership • Sanctuary work • Environmental monitoring roles

100

Rural communities wouldn't be abandoned. They'd be retooled, like towns shifting from coal to renewables.

100

Instead of CAFOs, imagine: • Indoor hydroponic farms • Community greenhouses • Protein crop fields • Mushroom & mycoprotein facilities • Soil restoration projects • Wildlife corridor maintenance All labor-intensive. All employable.

100

Where could those jobs go? 🌱 Plant agriculture (vegetables, grains, legumes, vertical farms) 🌱 Cultivated meat & fermentation (bioreactors, QA, lab techs) 🌱 Rewilding & land restoration 🌱 Sanctuary care 🌱 Food processing & plant-based manufacturing And more!
