The planet’s vital signs are getting worse. One of the easiest fixes is your diet.

While methane is a potent greenhouse gas; the main issue is CO²-equivalent per produced calorie. Growing edible plant is orders of magnitude more efficient than growing them + converting it to meat, before consumption.

There is just a lot of lost energy in the meat production chain. Therefore we have to produce so much more plants to feed the meat. And any production has a greenhouse cost to it.

Countries should ban import of meat and stop any subsidies for their own meat production. Then prices would influence customer choices appropriately; with dramatic drops in CO²-equivalent emissions.

this requires political will and less corruption.

It's not actually discounted though. They still make a heafty profit. They just mark up the alternative. Tomorrow they will make it more shitty and more expensive. Stock owners gotta extract ever more value. Line go up! End goal is to be a monopoly, protected by the law, get lots of money and provide little in value to anyonee in return.
