  • It’s important to remember that there’s kids working to earn some extra cash for themselves (what I did as a teen and it sounds like you did, too) and there’s kids from families that aren’t well off where they have to work to support their struggling families. It is exploitation of the latter that we should be worried and upset about. Most people are fine with kids working a couple hours a week, but they shouldn’t be forced (by the system) to work daily so they have a chance of getting enough food on the table.

    Oh, and btw, the working a couple hours a week thing is perfectly normal for kids in many European countries, too. I worked during holidays starting when I was 14 in Germany but IIRC only once you’re 16 you can actually do many hours

    Other people have answered more thoroughly, but it should be added that even your source never calls grass fed beef carbon neutral (on the very first paragraph it even says that it isn’t), just that it has a better CO2 footprint than grain fed beef (and that not by much, as has been pointed out)
