Acharya Prashant addresses the topic of non-vegetarianism, starting with an incident where a United Nations tweet linking the meat industry to climate change was deleted due to pressure from various lobbies. He calls this a conspiracy to deliberately suppress awareness. He explains that the tweet was removed to avoid harming the meat industry's profits, hurting religious sentiments, and offending people's taste preferences. He asserts that this information is so crucial that it should be taught to children in their textbooks from the third grade. Acharya Prashant states that while the root cause of climate change on a broader scale is the human population, at the level of our actions and choices, the primary cause is meat-eating. He emphasizes that this fact is not being widely communicated. A significant point he makes is the inseparable link between the meat and dairy industries, arguing that the dairy industry cannot exist without the meat industry. He explains that people who consume milk are also contributing to the meat industry, as the animal whose milk is consumed today will have its meat sold in the market tomorrow. This economic model makes an animal sustainable for its owner only when profit is extracted first from its milk and then from its meat. He elaborates that the dairy and meat industries are interdependent. If the demand for meat were to cease, milk would become prohibitively expensive, and conversely, if milk consumption stopped, meat prices would skyrocket. Therefore, both milk-drinkers and meat-eaters are complicit in the killing of animals. He points out that most milk consumers are unaware that they are responsible for the animal's exploitation, which includes forced artificial insemination—a process he equates to rape—and its eventual slaughter once it stops producing milk. Acharya Prashant refutes the argument that meat-eating is a long-standing tradition from our ancestors. He counters this by noting that many harmful ancient practices, like Sati, have been abolished. He argues that early humans were largely plant-eaters, as hunting was difficult without modern tools. The current scale of widespread meat consumption, he claims, is a recent phenomenon of the last 100 years, fueled by industrialization and the marketing of meat as a primary protein source. He also dismisses the "my choice" argument, explaining that eating meat is not a personal matter because its massive carbon footprint contributes to global warming, which affects everyone. He compares it to polluting with one's car, which is also not a personal choice. Finally, he criticizes the concept of "humane slaughter" as a moral pretense that shifts the focus from the fundamental question of why an animal should be killed at all.
