DB, i think you've missed the point of the question... you said you'd worry about birds after the human condition improves... working upon that premise, wouldn't it make sense that you can do both at the same time considering a diet change is a simple matter that requires little time?
"If the recommendations that you prescribe for animals were actually implemented, the cost for food, not just meat, but veggies too, would further skyrocket causing even more human misery."
i see your reasoning and i don't disagree with it DB, human suffering is more important than animal suffering. again, i agree, but again, you don't seem to desire to entertain any idea of a way around it. there are plenty of ways to prevent starvation right now that aren't being made use of, so i don't believe animal torture in the name of food to eat is a valid argument.
anyway, yes, the cause of meat would rise... but why would veggies?
and thank you for your prediction, i hope it comes true.
