Germany advised to ban meat.

Leftist think-tanks have advised Germany to limit meat to the equivalent of two sausages a month.

Surely not - the home of the Bratwurst and the Schnitzel?

Well, it has been advised, but let's see how it shall go down.

Two sausages a month is fine.

About 20 feet long each.

LOL well, while they're at , let's ban having fun, coffee, cigarettes, alcohol, chocolate, all will be next. Just like during the Soviet Union. Good ol Soviet style misery.
No good reason, just to exert power and watch everyone be miserable. Wonder when people will start to wake up and stop complying.

Many countries are leaning towards lowering animal protein consumption. I think the pendulum will swing in that direction and settle somewhere in the middle. Let's face it, plant based foods have been been around forever and if people wanted to ease up on meat consumption, there has been nothing stopping them. But now with all the climate change protocols being shoved down our throats, it's anybody's guess as to how things will end up. Germany long ago let the EU make food choices for them.

Since the 1960s, German agricultural policy has not been made in Germany but in the EC. All agricultural laws and regulations are written in Brussels, often after difficult negotiations between food-producing and food-consuming states. The main objective of those negotiations is to obtain high incomes for the farmers while keeping market prices low enough to avoid consumer protests. To make up the difference, the EC adopted the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP—see Glossary) subsidy program and the export subsidy program, both of which benefit German farmers as well as other EU farmers. In return, the German farmers have complied with European directives on the quality and quantity of production.

Germany embraces EU’s Farm to Fork spirit with nutrition strategy plans, With plans for a national nutrition strategy in the EU Farm to Form vein, German agriculture minister Cem Özdemir wants to make diets healthier and more plant-based, but some say the proposal is dictating what people can and cannot eat.[4]

It's best to at least be able to produce your own. It's so nice living in small rural communities because we have completely different standards. In fact the school I work at, I don't think we have ANY vegetarians out of a student body of around 190, K-12. California and New York are really pushing the plant based foods though and enacting laws to 'encourage' more plant based foods.

I feel sorry for kids in the bigger metropolitan schools though. Their lunches already sucked with real animal proteins and now I fear it will only be worse.

There's a reason meat replacements aren't popular.

The left has wild ideas!
They're thinking of pushing insects as a good source of nutrition. Thanks, but not thanks! A double cheeseburger with fries please and a large cola.

The irony of it all is. Where does the space to grow plants come from? Some animals habitat. These people are so out of balance.

This will be as popular as the idea of stopping Asia from eating rice..
Another one of klaus's genius schemes is it?

"Qvik Hanz,Ve must implement ze schtrict sausage blocking plan for ze schwine eaters!"

Lets hope he doesn't find out what those bubbles in the beer are made of,or beer will be banned next.

Likely not going to happen. Granted, most of humanity in the western world could eat a lot less meat. Not only for health, but to reduce the market for meat that drives the cruel practices of factory farming.

Even if people just compromised to reduce meat by half, that would make a huge difference.

And I remember a day long time ago, where I said to my dad:

"One day pot will be legal, and eating meat will be against the law".

What rubbish.
Go to bed.

Germany will just ban the leftist think tanks. That will do more good for the environment than cutting off people's food supply which will result in the vast majority of citizens bombing or burning the government buildings

I live in the country and venison is plentiful here. Besides, it's healthier than beef, pork or chicken for that mater.

There is plenty of fish too we can utilise. We don't have an issue eating meat and fish.

Visions of a world like in the film Delicatessen come to mind.
The elite need some sorting out, Germany needs some French attitude to nip this in the bud before it spreads as a policy to the rest of the planet.

Double post

They, who want us to tell what we have to think, to believe, to say, to feel and how we all have to behave push their agenda (Great Reset/Green New Deal), they have money and power over the MSM. That all makes it look like all we Germans want that S and support it.

Now go to the next discounter, supermarket, butcher and take a look at "how little" meat we all buy since we all are "saving the climate". The only way to make Germans eat less meat is making it overly expensive. And that´s what they do, not only with meat but with nearly everything. At the end average people can´t afford meat anymore, that´s the plan. And unfortunately it works. First victims are those who have not enough money anyway because the taxes take more than the half of your money every month. We have the biggest low wage slave market in Europe, a ridiculous small minimum wage but the highest prices for energy, rents, nearly everything. They doubled the prices for food within a few months, these prices will never go back.

Many people don´t have a choice anymore, they simply can´t afford meat anymore. And to hide that fact they make it look like the people want to starve, of course to "save the climate". What a BS!

This is an indicator for what will come sooner or later because if you take the germans their meat, their beer and their car, they will explode. Later rather than sooner but "good things" come to those who wait. Another indicator is that people now in masses vote for a party which is known to have relations with right-wing extremists and neo-nazis. Normally a no go in Germany but here we are again.

And this is only the fault of the established parties or as i call them, die Blockpartei, because the "different" parties are all the same, target the same goals and work not for but against the population here, make it´s life harder and harder since Corona, day by day. They are not different, these so called parties, they only play the good cop/bad cop game for the easy to manipulate majority of the grey mass.

People now vote because of protest against the Blockpartei and not really for the AfD (because they see no other choice anymore than to vote for them), because they don´t want all that "save the climate", do this and don´t do that. believe this and not that, behave like this and not like that BS. People don´t want the Green Party to do anything anymore and they see every other party (all of them except the AfD) which would form a coalition with the green party as inselectable meanwhile.

And i am not sure if all that wasn`t planned a long time ago, to make us forget the "de-nazification" and make us beg for another round of totalitarian fascism -BS.

Better don´t wish for things like this. The french had their revolution and killed their own money bags, they have their riots but hurt only themselves. When Germans snap.... history will teach you.

this kind of idiocy is why we're heading over the cliff edge..
