Steak is already on the menu tonight.

I tried to get the lemmy.world carnivore subreddit working, but there are five militant vegans for every carnivore on lemmy and in that sub. You could downvote troll here just by playing the meat eater

They're hardly touching your total karma though :)

Ha! You mean you started a carnivore community and kept getting brigaded by vegans? Funny if true since they always complain about meat eaters invading their safe spaces, as of they don’t disturb me in person about it while I’m trying to eat. It’s one of the most consistent double standards I’ve ever encountered.

Thanks for the note about the karma. I generally have vote counts turned off and don’t pay attention to that, but it’s good to know I’m not in the negative.

No, had I started it, I could have moderated it. I found it already created and tried to bring life, but there are so few zerocarb/carnivore people here and so many religiously vegan

Meat eaters probably not willing to subject themselves to the abuse. Totally understandable. We have our population of militant vegans here who can be way over the top, and I’ve commented throughout the years that I feel like we need a “meat eaters anonymous” support group to balance it out. Now I just point out what I said above about how if it weren’t for us, their own vegetables supply would suffer. At least here that makes them chill out a bit because they know it’s true from local farmers complaining about it.

I'm considering starting a "zerocarb" community, but that is an old name that has little brand recognition anymore.

Still the best places for carnivore support are on Reddit. r/ zerocarb, carnivore, ketoscience, meatogains

They don't seem to have lost many people to the exodus

Also I'm happy to cop downvotes. It helps me learn to craft my comments so they're less downvotable

Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
