Researchers say production of red meat is almost 150 percent worse for the environment than chicken or fish. Substituting one day per week's worth of calories from red meat and dairy products for chicken, fish, eggs, or a vegetable-based diet reduces the discharge of more greenhouse gases than buying all locally sourced food. |
