Meet the Girl, 12, Challenging Pope to Go Vegan for $1M
In 97 percent of countries, vegan diets had the lowest per capita greenhouse gas footprint. And if all countries adopted this plant-only diet, the amount of greenhouse gases released due to food production would drop by 70 percent per person, the team concluded. In most countries, the two-thirds vegan diet—where two out of three meals per day are based entirely on plants—was less greenhouse gas intensive than a vegetarian diet packed with dairy and eggs.
Nachman acknowledged the team did not take into account the processing, transportation, retail and preparation of the diets—but he argued the"bulk of the greenhouse gas emissions are thought to occur in the farming and production stage so this would not make a lot of difference."
