The new Danish dietary guidelines look like this: "Climate" mentioned 44 times vs 2 previously. "Plant-rich" 14 times, vs 0 previously. Eat more plants (esp green, red/orange), nuts & legumes; weekly rec. meat consumption reduced to 350g, from 500g. dr.dk/nyheder/viden/…


A nice summary of the policy implications of the #GWP* metric and issues surrounding ‘#grandfathering’— a climate policy concept where those most responsible for historical emissions are granted higher entitlements to future emissions. ow.ly/DqOZ30rcJBZ


Check out this new @EHPonline news piece about our NZ research, with comment from Walter Willett, renowned professor and cochair of the EAT-Lancet Commission. ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/EH…


“Any refusal to undertake a radical revision of the public health response to environmental crisis that centralizes Indigenous worldviews and knowledges is to perpetuate colonization, leading us further down the pathway toward ecological collapse.”

This post is unavailable.

“Academics have done an excellent job in communicating climate science, but the same cannot be said in relation to reducing emissions. Here we have collectively denied the necessary scale of mitigation, running scared of calling for fundamental changes...” ow.ly/6AuA30qTKNX

BREAKING: New scientific paper published in a Nature journal by @JKSteinberger et. al confirms that the Super-Rich are literally consuming the planet to death: capitalism and its drive for endless growth is the biggest driver of environmental damage nature.com/articles/s4146…


“As health professionals take action, civil disobedient action included, they’re communicating very clearly about the co-benefits of climate action for health and health equity.” @alexkmacmillan in a new @TheLancetPlanet feature ow.ly/ZW4e30qQZYz

Need any more evidence that intensive dairy is under-regulated, out of control and vandalising the environment? Look no further than the Mackenzie Basin - arid, fragile, iconic.. And about to be home to the biggest dairy farm in Australasia #TooManyCows stuff.co.nz/timaru-herald/…


“The growth of giant dairy companies has helped force milk prices below the cost of production for the last decade, causing a crisis in rural livelihoods and requiring taxpayer subsidies to keep farmers afloat.” ow.ly/xDbB30qQ5cf

New Netherlands 🇳🇱 study finds that a 15-30% meat tax or 10% fruit&veg subsidy could result in reduced healthcare costs, increased quality of life, and higher productivity. Benefits to the environment of a 30% meat tax are an estimated €6300 million. ow.ly/uhH430qIqO1


#GWP*, a relatively new metric for combining GHGs, is often used by the livestock industry to argue for the status quo. This editorial, and accompanying FCRN report, by one of the metric’s developers is an important read. ow.ly/k6U030qIqGb


What do you guys think? Is #ecolabelling on food a good idea? Would it influence your purchasing decisions? ow.ly/BqRH30qIqKo


“The EU’s farm to fork strategy would cut pesticide use, boost organic farming and halve the use of antibiotics on farm animals by 2030, as well as improving farming practices to reduce CO2 emissions. Fridays for Future wants the EU to go further.” ow.ly/OC5q30qIqyP


It’s 🇺🇳 International #Biodiversity Day! Did you know: • 3/4 of the land-based environment and about 2/3 of the marine environment have been significantly altered by human actions. • 1m animal and plant species are now threatened with extinction. ow.ly/Jn0j30qIro3
