Shouting louder will do more harm than good. Politicians will ignore you because money, and the rest of us will be annoyed rather than swayed. We all know your arguments, and we've rejected them. Awareness, apart from young people, isn't the problem anymore. Do you really think shouting at young people will get them on your side?
Do you think silence will help? Obviously not.
That said, the material conditions will do most of the convincing from here on. Animal exploitation is more expensive, less efficient, and requires immense amounts of human labor and suffering. It can't be sustained indefinitely, eventually, you'll have to eat beans.
It's still helpful to give people a good reason to make the switch, instead of just bludgeoning them over the head with high prices.

At the moment I would say: Just sit back and let the high beef prices and 300,000 tonnes of mystery beef do their magic.
