Yup, unless there’s a pill, people don’t want to take the effort before it’s already too late. It’s probably a reason why there’s such a bias towards medicine, even over basic stuff like healthy eating.
A good documentary on that subject was The Magic Pill. Well worth a watch!
I'm following a Keto diet where I eat meat 2 times a day.
I'm dissatisfied with the state of the science behind the impact of meat on both health and climate. If you search papers/studies on this, you'll find diverging answers.
Pros plant-based people have the movie "The game changers", Pros meat-based people have the movie "The magic pill". You can find a lot of articles that praise/criticize both movies.
