Researchers have linked dietary data from over 55,000 individuals with data on the environmental impacts of the foods they eat. The team, from the Livestock, Environment and People (LEAP) project at the University of Oxford, found that the dietary impacts of vegans were around a third of those of high meat eaters. They also saw a 30% difference between high- and low-meat diets for most of the measures of environmental harm.

    I don’t believe it makes any difference at all, and it definitely doesn’t have the biggest impact anyone can make.

          I am sure you did your own research on the shitter. Much smart, such proof, many scientific.

              I think you are just a egoistical self centered science denier who has troubles with very simple concepts.

                i think you don’t understand science if you think the poore nemecek paper supports the fluff piece you referenced.

                  Please, go on, rebut the IPCC https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aba7357

                  I am sure I will see it in the news, backyard science that changes how we see the world are always hyped.

                    this, also, does not support the fluff piece you linked.
