Changing Climate, Changing Diets: Pathways to Lower Meat Consumption de Laura Wellesley

Changing Climate, Changing Diets: Pathways to Lower Meat Consumption

Contribuţii de Laura Wellesley, Catherine Happer, Antony Froggatt
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 mai 2016
Human consumption of meat and dairy products is a major driver of climate change but has been largely overlooked in national and international climate change policy. Using data obtained from a twelve-country survey and from focus groups and stakeholder meetings in Brazil, China, the United States, and the United Kingdom, this report explores public understanding and awareness of the links between meat and dairy consumption and climate change. It makes recommendations as to how state and nonstate actors can develop policies that support sustainable diets at the national and international level. The report will help to inform discussion around demand-side measures to reduce the climate impact of the livestock sector, measures that are essential to meet international climate targets and realize important health, environmental and societal benefits.

Descriere

Human consumption of meat and dairy products continues to be a major driver of climate change but has, so far, been largely overlooked in national and international climate policy. Using data obtained from a twelve-country survey and focus groups and stakeholder meetings in Brazil, China, the United States, and the United Kingdom, the report explores the extent of public awareness and understanding of the issue and makes specific recommendations for state and non-state actors to develop dietary change policies on national and international levels. In doing so, it will help to shift the focus toward demand-side action, which has been shown to be essential both to meet internationally agreed-upon climate objectives and to achieve other societal, health, and environmental objectives.
