Hi everyone!
I'm new to the site, but I was hoping you all could help me out. I'm a college student doing research this summer (also a vegetarian of about a year), and I'm looking into partial vegetarians / selective or "ethical" omnivores / those who cut back their meat consumption for one reason or another.
How do you all feel about this? Does someone who reduces their meat consumption for animal rights reasons deserve moral "credit"? How about if their reasons are environmental?
In the same vein, how do you feel about people who cut red meat out of their diets, but continue to eat poultry and fish? And are pescetarians vegetarians?
Thanks in advance for all of your help! I really value any insight you can offer.
