I’m gonna be real, the majority of the US will never give up eating meat. It’s engrained in the culture and the way people live every day. It would be like asking people to give up couches and only ever use chairs.
Red meat industry is several times worse for the environment, it’s the most pollution. But really you have the food waste as the lowest hanging branch, and newer techniques like cold pasteurization with radiation can be done on raw meat and produce without heating it. Reducing food waste by 10 to 20 percent is entirely doable.
