Both scientists and nonscientists should watch this and reflect.
In the last interview of his life (1996), astronomer Carl Sagan warned of the dangers that come when citizens cannot ask skeptical scientific questions of those in authority. Watch and ask: was he right?

The Dublin Declaration of Scientists on the Societal Role of Livestock - recently approved, is a very valuable contribution to the ongoing debates in the EU. I recommend its reading. dublin-declaration.org/

"We are not yet equipped w/ all scientific evidence we need to answer all relevant questions...it is not the best option to do something actionistic, w/ poorly understood consequences, but to step up research & develop better solutions"

“The relationship is so WEAK, that the control group of trial #45 has a similar event rate as the drug group of trial #46 despite vastly different LDL levels (151 mg/dL vs. 55 mg/dL).”
Another great article on Silverman 2016 by @ZahcM well worth your time! @ProfTimNoakes

It's a conversation we cannot capture in a few tweets, that's why we have constructed an entire website: aleph-2020.blogspot.com/p/su…
We need to discuss methods & scale but unless we're suicidal as a society, we'll need ruminant husbandry for a sustainable future.

Not only is the monoculture-based production of ultra-processed foods an ecological disaster but the associated burden of disease also comes with massive emissions (the global pharmaceutical sector is more emission-intensive than the automotive industry: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…)
Conclusion of an excellent intervention study that responded directly to what is the relevant question on the environmental impact of UPF: ‘Decreasing the consumption of UPF should be considered not only for health but also for environmental protection’.

Plant-based diets: benefits on weight/BMI/waist circumference, blood glucose, LDL-C, but not HDL-C, triglycerides & blood pressure; "findings should be interpreted with caution because most of the reviews were rated to be of low credibility of evidence & were largely based on Western eating habits and traditions, which may limit the generalizability of findings"

"There are many good reasons to rethink the global use of resources, but there is no doubt that grasslands and their large herds of herbivores will keep on fulfilling their roles in global ecology and the nourishing of humans, as they have been doing for millions of years"

This specific ranch farms cattle within the natural ecosystems and occurring wildlife - no borders or fences in between them- to gain the most out of the synergy between the cattle, wildlife and natural bushveld.

Danish doctor, medical researcher Uffe Ravnskov never believed cholesterol or saturated fat caused heart disease. Branded a crank, his 1991 book, The Cholesterol Myth, was mocked. Too much for angry "Diet Heart" proponents in Finland, his book was set afire on live TV.
