There is considerable political and economic pushback from the livestock industry.
On July 26th 2020, the United Nations offended the global meat industry with a Twitter posting, stating that "the meat industry is responsible for more greenhouse gas emissions than the world's biggest oil companies". The UN deleted the tweet 4 days later. Neverthless, the UN's climate action website continues to promote plant-based meals.

GO VEGAN to stop pandemics is clear to all but the wish to be ostriches sticking heads in the sand and be sitting ducks for the next killer animal virus pandemic as well as heart disease cancer diabetes dementia health diseases and planetary destruction of forests and wild life.

$58 BILLION
Amount Americans spent on their pets in 2014—about $22 billion of that spending went to pet food
157+ MILLION
Total number of pets in the US in 2014. Since the 1970s, the number of households with pets has roughly tripled.
meat consumption by pet dogs and cats creates 64 million tons of carbon dioxide each year
If our dogs and cats constituted their own country, they'd rank fifth in global meat consumption, behind only Russia, Brazil, China, and the United States.
