The UK currently kill 2.6m cows and 10m pigs each year, so requiring nearly all of the 50m adults to slaughter an animal seems, uh, somewhat overly aggressive.

The FT has a series “a new deal for the young” which has lots of sensible comments from young people, and one absolutely insane one, from someone who is either innumerate or *really* hates animals.pic.twitter.com/sTIzhx3UiT

Put another way — the average person in the UK eats 60-80kg of meat per year (mostly chicken). You get 200kg of beef from a cow.

I don't understand these kinds of arguments. Yes, I do think most people would be shocked the first time they visit a slaughterhouse. But stop eating meat? How do you think people got meat until very recently, except by killing their own animals.

I would introduce an "electronics license" which every adult in the UK would require before they purchase/consume electronics. To get this license, once a year they would have to go to Congo/Chile/China and mine cobalt/lithium/etc.

This idea was originally from Magnus Nillsen c2013. This article frames it slightly better than that comment.https://www.goodfood.com.au/eat-out/news/chewing-the-fat-with-magnus-nilsson-20130412-2hrtf …
