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.

Suuuure... However, it's not that difficult to replace all meat entirely, rapidly (around a decade). This is where TVP tech comes in, which I stated in my original comment.

TVP is tremendously cheap, contains as much protein as meat and is even easier to prepare than meat. It's like vegan vibranium. Check it out.

Hows it taste?

Absolutely amazing when made properly. U need to soak it for like 15 min before cooking, then squeeze the brownish water out. Refill and squeeze immediately (u don't need to soak for 15 min again ofc). The goal is to remove the brownish water (which contains the cardboard like flavor). Also, if you're boiling it, remember to add salt to preserve the texture.
