Just ordered a kebab.
Well at least someone has given up meat.

Didn't know the BBC produced meat.

We up here eat meat in moderation, mainly eating veggie type food.
So if everyone cut back in eating meat, then I'm sure a difference could be made.

The mass of wild mammals on the planet now sits at just 3%. Humans constitute 30%, while the remaining 67% is domesticated animals, mostly for human consumption

Until the Americas consider their red meat addiction (which isn't going to happen anytime soon - see also America and guns) then whatever we do ain't going to make much difference unfortunately

Why should you stop eating chicken? Don't they eat a fraction of the grain/grass that cattle do (per kg of meat rendered) ?

Simple answer is yes. My youngest is driving down our red meat consumption but we still eat it but a lot less than a year ago. Quorm will play a bigger role over the coming years. It's better for the planet and better for your health.

I’ll stick to having my daily meat intake.
Maybe efforts should be made to address the population explosion.
What about the billions of rats?

But do they emit methane anywhere near as much (per kg) as cows?
And even more mice.
I presume.

Nah, just stop breeding them, eat what’s left, stop eating them.

Problem is a lot of our stock is being fed with soya grown on former rain forest.
VAT on all meat would be a good start to curb consumption. Meat is too cheap now
