Are Vegetable Oils High Carbon & Bad For Climate Change?
After writing about some of the worst foods for climate change, which are beef and dairy products, farmed shrimp, lamb, and pork, I wondered if vegetable oils too have a high carbon footprint. It turns out, they do, according to this article about a 2022 study: ““Whilst vegetable oils might not seem like one of the biggest food groups, they can in fact be found everywhere. Production of the crops that produce vegetable oil also takes up around 20 percent of arable land worldwide, so vegetable oil production is definitely a big contributor to global GHG emissions, as well as other sustainability issues such as biodiversity loss,” says Alcock.”
Vegetable oils, though commonly used, are actually not necessary for health nutrition or consumption. There is an idea that they are better for human health than using butter and lard, for example. However, no one must consume lard or butter and therefore, there is nothing mandatory about consuming vegetable oils either. Some cuisines may have used butter and lard for many years before nutrition and health science discovered how unhealthy they can be and how they have contributed to heart disease in humans.
So, it seems logical to replace them with healthier alternatives, but in fact, there is an alternative which is simply to stop consuming butter, lard, margarine, and vegetable oils. None of them have ever been essential for human consumption and in fact can be detrimental to human health.
These people are just so depressing.
