    Surely the societal pressure to change the systems that support factory farming of animals will grow pretty much in proportion with the vegan/vegetarian population? I don’t like the defeatist attitude that our choises as consumers don’t matter, at all.

      It’s not defeatist, it’s pushing back against the wishful thinking that “voting with your dollar” is effective and your responsibility ends there.

        I mean if they make substantially less money with product x they scale back production. Just like with any other product.

        Really not that complicated. Obviously they’re not tracking my personal consumption, nobody believes that.
