A report commissioned for the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group has proposed radical reductions in the consumption of meat and the amount of travel its citizens should undertake.
Researchers from Leeds, England, provided the report of the C40, an association of metropolitan cities responsible for 10 percent of global emissions of greenhouse gasses that is committed to the development of “healthy, just, and resilient communities.”
Cities involved with the C40 include Warsaw, Berlin, London, and Istanbul.
The researchers propose a limit of 16 kilograms of meat per annum for every person. An average Pole currently consumes 70 kilograms of meat per annum.
The report also recommends a big reduction in the consumption of dairy products. While an average Pole currently consumes 200 kilograms of dairy products every year, the new limit would be 90 kilograms.
