EATING LESS meat or giving up flying are palpable ways people can help mitigate climate change. But how much does personal action matter? And how should societies meet the challenge of lowering greenhouse gas emissions?
Yael Parag of the Reichman University in Tel Aviv weighs the merits of individual carbon budgets. Bruce Friedrich of the Good Food Institute highlights the impact of eating beef.

You need initiative both at personal and industrial level. Many polluting businesses justify their practices with 'it's what our customers need/demand'. The only way to change this is and make their excuses hollow is to put our wallets where our mouths are.

jonfasman this is terrible news
jonfasman What would be nice is if we could get everyone to eat more bugs and plant based foods...Bugs have more more protein and if they just gave it a try more often it might change the way they think about eaten them,and for a good cause as well 'saving the planet'
