She's right in many aspects, but what an annoying video to watch !
The title is a bit of an exaggeration, I would say most environmentalists know already that eating meat is bad for the environment and act accordingly. Also she makes it sound like it's and and/or thing, where for example either you use less water in your home or you eat less meat, can we do both maybe ?
I know many people that consider themselves environmentalists but have no idea that meat consumption is bad for the environment at all, or they don't know how bad it really is. I think that's the main target demographic for this video.
The "either you use less water in your home or you eat less meat"-thing was more for the sake of comparison/perspective, I think.
For me the way she narrated was a little irritating, she spoke too fast and in a kind of condescending way. Too "hipsterish" for my taste, but I see how it may appeal to some people.
Of course you found it annoying if you couldn't keep up.
Every single thing that I don't understand, will annoy me to no end. That's life. So by your logic, you shouldn't make it more annoying for the people that don't share your tastes.
I knew from the start: the glasses, the hair style, the shirt to show off her new tats, and the annoying condescending attitude. I didn't make it to any of the points she tried to make. I tried but I couldn't do it.

Why do you find it to be annoying?

There the data, that's one thing. And then there's the way to present the data, that's another thing.

She's had these tatoos for quite some time now. And there's nothing wrong with her glasses and her hairstyle.
I've watched Emily's videos for quite some time now and she really cares a lot about animals, there's nothing condescending about that.

her body language and tone are condescending, basically its not because shes wrong, shes just an asshole about it :)
