That’s the easiest solution, the best for the environment and probably our collective health. I just dont see it as realistic to do. People have an emotional attachment to meat and the industry has a powerful lobby in basically every government. I encourage everyone to do their part in reducing consumption but I think fighting for systemic regulation for meat access is an impossible battle. Cell culture/meat alternatives to price out conventional meat over time and advances in science to combat antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria.
A number of countries have had decent reductions in their meat consumption over the last decade. It’s not an impossible fight
In 2011, Germans ate 138 pounds of meat each year. Today, it’s 121 pounds — a 12.3 percent decline. And much of that decline took place in the last few years, a time period when grocery sales of plant-based food nearly doubled.
We could try reducing our meat consumption.
