Reply to comment by DBSTKjS in New Zealand proposes taxing cow burps to reduce emissions by TDYDave2

Undeniable yep , but still the taxing won't really produce this kind of outcome i'm afraid.

Who's that? It increases the price for animal based food without an increase in plant based food. Thereby making the former less and the latter more competitive. That is literally the way you control consumption in a capitalist system.

Where does it not increase the price of plant based food? If we shift into plant based food without guaranteeing the increase of production , it will increase the plant based food price for sure. I'm not saying it is what i want to happen i'm saying it is what is likely to happen .
