Vegans, vegetarians, fish-eaters and meat-eaters in the UK show discrepant environmental impacts - Nature Food

Modelled estimates of the environmental impact of dietary choices often fail to reflect true dietary practice. This study links a dietary dataset from 55,000 UK consumers with food-level data on GHG emissions, land use, water use, eutrophication and biodiversity to compare the environmental burden of different levels of meat consumption.

    This is rather intuitive result, although always nice to have the impacts quantified. What’s really frustrating me lately, is that it’s absolutely impossible to have people around me understand this simple fact. Science is cool when it produces new toys and gadgets, not so much when it tells you to change your habits.
