I'll have you know I am currently enjoying mildly suffering a wonderful somewhat painful tan sunburn.

Illegal meat farms. They'll replace the illegal weed farms inside people's basements.

If every country would allow only one child per family (the others have to be aborted, mind you, not just heavily taxed like in China), we'd be fine.
The language of Draugaborg is Draugskur. The demonym is Draugaborgskúr(male) or Draugaborgskö (female), both plural and singular. The adjective is Draugaborgar. Draugskur is a constructed and artistic language created by me, and is based mainly on Icelandic and Russian. Please note that its systems and grammar may be modified, so certain posts will be rendered void in retrospect.

There are at least a couple of vegan MMA fighters, Roman gladiators were probably largely vegetarian ...that seems more like dumb stereotyping to me.

I'm Asian, so looking pale is kind of a good thing. Vegetarians and vegans only look pale if they fail to replace the iron in their diet with iron from easily available plant sources.

Yes, but why look for other types of food when there is 7 billion cuts of meat out there?

Because those cuts of meat are sapient. Don't get me wrong, if I was starving to death and it was my only option I'd take it in a heartbeat, but not a moment before every other source of food was gone.

Would you still drive a car if petrol became prohibitively expensive? Meat prices will increase if supply decreases or demand increases. Based on current population growth figures, demand will increase significantly due to wealthier middle classes in developing countries and overall population growth.

No, we'd basically have one formerly very spoilt, very small generation at a time supporting two or three much larger ones. This is basically not super viable.

Just set the retirement age to like 95 and we'll be fine.
