How do you feel about people being vegetarian? My guess is that you would just say offset less?

yeah probably. I guess depends on how u think about it. the majority of eggs cause a very large amount of suffering per kcal, comparable to chicken, whereas milk probably causes ~2-3 orders of magnitude less.

Not even mentioning Ozy's Ameliatarianism? For shame. In my experience it's about a quadrillion times easier to avoid poultry, eggs and fish than dairy, and if you do this you can reduce your offset down to like a dollar a month since the suffering produced by the worst animal products is orders of magnitude greater than the least bad ones. And you don't even need to worry about nutritional deficiencies either.

Anyway, as soon as they figure out how to convincingly imitate cheese and add a vegan substitute for seasoned beef at taco bell I'll go vegan.
