Another way to look at it: we’re already over the climate brink. Your future won’t have cheap/stable meat access no matter what. We can either clutch our hotdogs right up until supply chain collapse makes mass meat farming untenable or proactively discard them to make a slight difference (in conjunction with other big changes).
Same with cars, even if we completely ignore climate change we maybe got a century left of oil before it’s too expensive to drive. By not investing in other transportation now we’re just making it more painful when we finally do rip the bandaid off.

The water wars will probably kill us off before we run out of oil.
