There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I really enjoyed it and it was eye opening for sure, especially the part about beef agriculture.
https://www.beforetheflood.com/explore/t...evel-rise/

I'm already aware about the harmful nature of animal agriculture and its one of the reasons I try to be as "vegan" as possible.... most of the time.
But to see just how much methane they produce and learn how much of our agriculture is actually devoted to it over farming for vegetables and grains... above 90% of all agriculture in the US is devoted to beef farms and feeding them.

The other part that really struck me was this:

It opens your eyes to the more "unstable or violent" parts of the world and what stands out is that their natural resources are vanishing and they are fighting over what little is left, I can't help but to think that is possibly the future we leave all of our children. Our resources are vanishing, all over, not just in 3rd world countries.
I think that it's already too late, the global heating is happening, many species are in deep trouble, us included. But that doesn't mean its too late, but it does mean that it will not be the next generation that feels the relief, but a few generations down the road that will actually see the benefits if we were to completely change to no emissions right now.

As an American, I'm also disgusted in the political bureaucracies that get in way of us going completely green. The denials that you hear from people with heavy financial ties to the destruction of the world is heartbreaking,


Anyway, what did you guys think about it?
