Right. But this infographic is showing the impact that a single meat based day has on that figure.

So how would you phrase it from that perspective?

"How many fewer animals you eat by eliminating 1 meal a week"

Come on man, this isn't hard.

But the animals won't ever have existed to be eaten. So you can't say that.

The animals aren't born. So you can't not eat what doesn't exist.

That doesn't make any sense, you're just trying to win the argument at this point lol

You present it as "you will eat fewer animals" which is true, and you let people decide for themselves if the ramifications of that is worth it to them and what it means.

What you don't do is present your data with a blatant lie in the title in order to push people's opinions to your own viewpoint
