Acharya Prashant asserts that meat consumption is a primary driver of global poverty, citing environmental damage, medical costs, and the inefficient use of resources as major factors. He explains that a substantial part of the global GDP is consumed by the consequences of meat production. He points out that animal farming, including meat and dairy, is responsible for approximately one-third of climate change, which results in immense economic losses worldwide. Using the Indian economy as an example, he argues that the financial gains from the meat industry are negligible compared to the massive losses incurred from climate change-related events. He states that for every rupee earned through meat consumption or export, ten rupees are lost to the economy. Acharya Prashant further critiques government initiatives like the Pink Revolution and Blue Revolution, labeling them as economically detrimental. He mentions that climate change is already reducing the global GDP by eleven to fourteen percent, which translates to hundreds of billions of dollars in losses for India annually. He emphasizes that the link between meat consumption and climate change is often suppressed by the media, educational systems, and governments due to the vested interests of the meat, dairy, and processed food industries. He concludes that if poverty is to be eradicated, meat consumption must be eliminated, as it is a significant burden on the economy and the environment.
