    It’s not that eating meat accounts for 18% of greenhouse gas emissions, it’s the meat industry that does. I think if we do away with certain practices in the meat industry (ie. Feedlots), we’ll see those numbers go down. Maybe if we can go back to hunting as our primary method of getting meat, that would also help.

      Sadly, less intense meat production only uses more resources, as more land is needed. The longer an animal lives, the more resources it uses.

      6 billion hunters would be a sight to behold!

        Only if you factor in a constant demand which is not realistic. If supply goes down and meat becomes expensive, nobody can afford thier weekly meat anymore except for the rich.
