New Video: This is NOT an Anti-Meat-Video
🕑 Added 2025-02-25 15:00:15 +0000 UTCDear Birbs,
Most of us love animals but also eat meat. Unfortunately, most animals we eat live in truly horrible conditions. We don’t torture them for better meat, just for cheaper meat. If we all paid just a bit more, we could avoid most animal suffering – often just for a few cents per meal. What would it truly cost us to avoid animal torture and still eat meat?
Much love,
all of us at kurzgesagt 🦆✨
PS: We know that meat consumption is an emotional topic. Please keep the discussion friendly.

Vegan (organic) meat also can give you amino acid's!
Arthur Robillard
A little more money for better lives of these animals and a clearer conscience, I wouldn't argue with that. I fear that too much of the rest of the world would.

be careful on everything that comes to being a vegan, to hit your amino-acids effeciently (hit your protein) a lot of people miss that, so do your research, as said in the video if you watched it full, you can use things like mussels which are pain - free for them since they don't have pain receptors or even a brain. Though yeah, hitting your amino-acids for the day is very important for your well function of organs. I advice you to do further research and also, there are some things that meat helps that you will for sure need to supplement, you can search a list online like Omega-3 (fish oil) , Creatine , and more, just make sure you are informed and take a decision that is best for your health. Respects!

As usual, unfettered capitalism ruins everything. The constant drive to squeeze every cent of profit out of every industry is what drives farms toward such cruelty. Also, imagine how much more affordable more-ethical meat would be if wages increased in line with productivity.

Your video about the environmental cost of meat inspired me to be vegan. I am still grateful for this video for those who could use a nudge of awareness but aren't ready to take a more drastic change.

I'm already vegetarian (Psst, I'm only 12 year's old, but I watched these video's since I was 5!)

Learned something - I had no idea pigs were treated worse than chickens. Also, really happy you included muscles at the end. Did you look into clams & other seafood? How about insects as a protein source?
Rodrigo Monteiro
Would have been nice if this had included a discussion on the consequences of Halal meat
Cameron Stephens
Really well put together. As a compulsive carnivore, I found this interesting and informative without being preachy. You’ve earned my subscription.
Steve Bonds
EU, show US the way. We're not likely to be doing anything about this any time soon.
Dayne
So true. Anyone who disagree with these facts is a delusional turbonormie
Jackson Walker
Think I’ll skip this one
Daniel Turner
