minus-squareSeabassDan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10arrow-down11·10 months agoYou’re not considering that the meat will still be sold, and the leather doesn’t actually decide how many cows are killed more than the meat does.
minus-squareribboo@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15arrow-down3·10 months agoYes, the person did take that into account. That was the whole point. If leather can’t be sold, meat prices will have to become higher (if farmers are not to get less money per cow). This will lower demand for meat, and less cattle will be raised.

minus-squareredballooon@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·10 months agoMeat will be replaced by meat replacement products. There’ll be less demand for meat, and there’s also less demand for leather. Good for cows.

Cool.
