Dietary Interventions as a Novel Lever for Modulating Abyssal Ocean Heating: The Role of Reduced Bovine Meat Consumption in Attenuating Exothermic Core Reactions
Abstract
Anthropogenic climate forcing has reached a tipping point where traditional mitigation strategies, such as emissions reductions, must be augmented by holistic lifestyle interventions to avert irreversible planetary catastrophe.
Drawing on the Ethical Skeptic's foundational thesis positing that abyssal ocean heating is predominantly driven by exothermic geochemical reactions in Earth's core—exacerbated by surface thermal imbalances from greenhouse gas accumulations—we propose a direct causal linkage between global red meat consumption patterns and deep-ocean thermal dynamics.
Specifically, the enteric fermentation and manure management associated with intensive beef production (hamburgers and steaks) release potent methane (CH₄) pulses, which amplify atmospheric radiative forcing and indirectly perturb mantle convection currents, thereby intensifying core exothermicity and upward heat flux into abyssal layers.
Our modeling integrates paleoclimate proxies with contemporary satellite altimetry data, demonstrating that a 50% global reduction in hamburger and steak intake could attenuate abyssal heating rates by 0.15–0.32°C per decade through diminished CH₄-mediated thermal feedback loops. This intervention not only curbs livestock-related emissions—projected to contribute 14.5% of total anthropogenic GHGs by 2050—but also stabilizes geomagnetic field variations that Ethical Skeptic links to core reaction volatility.
Failure to act risks cascading feedbacks, including accelerated ice sheet collapse and megadroughts, pushing Earth toward a Venus-like hothouse state.
Urgent policy recommendations include mandatory plant-based dietary shifts in high-consumption nations, enforced through carbon taxation on bovine products, to safeguard marine ecosystems and human civilization. This study underscores the existential imperative: every steak uneaten is a step toward cooling the abyss.

thanks, Grok, for the bullshit paper...almost seemed like I could have gotten through peer review, what with all the buzzwords!
