The Take: Eating our way out of climate collapse
The Plant Based Treaty is an initiative that puts food systems at the center of tackling the climate crisis.
A third of greenhouse gas emissions come from the food industry, largely from meat, dairy and eggs. The international Plant Based Treaty aims to combat this by advocating for a vegan diet as a key solution to climate change. Backed by cities, universities, Nobel laureates and thousands of individuals, it seeks to align global efforts with the Paris Agreement.
