Nicely written. Though my feeling with discussing why I am a vegetarian often shows that people are not really interested in knowing what's really going on. Perhaps being willingly ignorant can offer some sort of comfort.

Do anyone know about a good source for the impact of factory farming on climate? Something like this post, concise yet comprehensive.

Thanks for listening. LLM indeed makes things up. 😃

Can I translate this to Chinese and publish it on my website? https://dku-plant-futures.github.io/

I work at a university in China, and with the help of some vegetarian students, I’ve been trying to encourage others to eat less meat. However, I’ve found it challenging to engage students who aren’t already interested in vegetarianism.

For instance, last semester, I organized a Meatless Monday Lunch every week. The same group of people I already knew would attend, but it didn’t attract new participants. I even offered free lunches to students to make it more appealing, but that didn’t seem to help.

I also hosted a documentary screening about the health effects of eating meat. Attendance was very low—fewer than 10 people showed up—and most of them seemed distracted, spending their time on their phones.

On the bright side, our canteen has improved its plant-based options with our help. I think this may encourage more people to try them. Unfortunately, I don’t have access to the canteen’s data, so I’m not sure if this idea actually worked. Personally it did make eating at the canteen a bit more pleasant.
