I do. Not for myself, but we all know that there are many people who would never give up meat. So for them.

No way. Its a generational issue. Make schools meat free and apply a 200% tax on things that are causing the climate catastrophe (at least including carbon & meat), and in 2 generations you'll see most people gave up meat.

There's nothing to miss, people just need to experience it for some years. When people realize the bean burger is just as good and 20x cheaper than the cow burger, they'll order it every time
