I'd like to think that eating meat responsibly is all about balance/moderation.
I think we've gone too extreme in our diets, meat-focussed and sugar-focussed. They are easy filling calories.
Michael Pollan's writing on this subject is always reasonable: "a little bit of everything, but mostly veg". I think you're never going to get the average person to cut down in an extreme way (veganism, 100% veggie) -- so it has to be about balance. People's livelihoods depend on meat farming but we just can't do too much of it.
