Not only that, but we're talking about a country with some of the highest per-capita beef consumption in the world. Beef has an order of magnitude higher impact on emissions as other meats. It's so fucking inefficient it's insane.

I think it's much easier to shift people to more efficient meats than it is to cut meat out entirely.

Easier yes, I suppose.

It's still a half measure that will at best delay the worst effects of climate change (such as many other mainstream proposals to combat it) and there's a difference between how radical the changes to society will be and whether climate change will be bad, very bad, very very bad or lead to Medieval death rates
