Friend A; let's call him Frank has gone vegetarian recently. His reasons are mainly for the environment, but also for the animals and his health. Friend B; let's call her Jane, says there is no point at all becoming vegetarian for either the planet or for the animals, as dairy is worse than meat for the animals and because cheese and butter are apparently worse for the planet than chicken or pork...
Frank intends to go vegan eventually, but is in no great hurry to do so, but he does eat vegan quite a lot and always goes for non dairy milk when we're out for coffee etc. FWIW, June is neither veggie nor vegan.
I honestly don't know what I think, except that I would've thought veggie was indeed a bit better than eating meat, for the animals and the planet..?
But maybe I'm mistaken and actually local chicken / pork and no dairy is better?
I know there are a lot of vegans and veggies on here, so thought I'd ask you, if you don't mind.

Thoughts on this? Is there ''no point'' being vegetarian?
