plant-based foods emit fewer greenhouse gases than meat and dairy, regardless of how they are produced.

this is one of those things that is true but taken to far. If I stop eating meat it will not end the meat industry but if I am I am supporting it and the carbon it uses to produce the meat I eat and buy. The more people who don’t buy meat the more it becomes unprofitable versus growing food. That being said I eat meat and I am trying to limit beef as me going from eating beef to chicken/pork has a more massive effect than a person going from chicken to beans. Im surprised at lamb, shrimp, and chesse on the chart though and wonder about goats. I assume cheese assume from cow but given lambs numbers and that cheese is generally from cow, goat, sheep im not sure.
