Eating a lot of meat and dairy puts pressure on nature. It leads to deforestation, water pollution, and climate change. By 2050, there will be over 9 billion people on Earth. Without any change in the way we eat, environmental damage will only get worse. What if we could eat foods that taste like meat and milk, but without hurting the planet as much? Novel plant-based foods, like plant-based burgers or oat milk, are made to taste and feel like animal products while using less land, water, and producing fewer greenhouse gases. Traditional plant-based foods, like tofu, lentils, and chickpeas are also healthy, tasty, and better for the planet. If everyone gradually replaced half of their meat and dairy with plant-based options we could save forests, reduce emissions, and make food more affordable. Even small changes in diet can make a big difference for the planet—and our future.
