The UK public should be urged by the government to protect the climate by eating less meat and dairy produce, advisers say.
Cattle are a major source of planet-heating gases, but ministers fear a backlash if they ask people to cut down on steak.
But the Climate Change Committee (CCC) says people should reduce meat-eating for their health, as well as for the planet.
It says the issue's one of many failings of a government which is delivering only a fifth of its pledges on climate change.
People should be asked to eat 20% less meat and dairy produce by 2030, and 35% less by 2050, the CCC insists.
The CCC says Boris Johnson must devise evidence-based policies to encourage healthier diets and set clear targets.
Its report says the PM's "remarkable" climate leadership is undermined by inadequate policies and poor implementation in many areas of policy.
A government spokesman said its Net Zero Strategy due in the Autumn would show where carbon cuts would be imposed across the economy.

And likewise I couldn’t be sure if you were jesting or not there. Indeed, there are a lot of big government advocates posing as conservatives who might love the idea of rationing in general especially in these days “universal basic income” has evolved into actual threat here in the US.
Please let Wagyu beef stay around....
Completely agree. In fact, I have not been vocal about being vegan for decades. Very few friends and acquaintances know about it. Only recently am I outspoken about it, and that is primarily to have my own particular soapbox as a vegan against this new world order agenda diet meddling. Honestly, I would rather have the entire rest of the world remain carnivore than even one person eat “less meat” because it was imposed by elites.
Plenty of over lords wanting to steer the ship.
Funny thing...my girls never ate a hamburger until they were out of the house...on their own.
Nothing in the Bible says to eat less meat.
However, the Bible does suggest which car to drive.
“Jesus and the disciples were in one Accord.”
I agree. But most Keto people find that it isn’t sustainable for life whereas most vegetarians find vegetarianism is a choice they can maintain throughout life...into eternity actually.
Best wishes.
Read Genesis 18. Abraham serves his three guests bread, meat, butter and milk.
Anyone taken a look at what Parliament serves in its dining room?
Meat.
Thanks and likewise!
“I would pleased if more folks to adopt a vegan diet inspired by a belief that it is more compassionate.“
Not all beliefs are facts.

It would be better foe the planet if we ate more ministers (they fart more than cows).
Better hurry them off to human composting facilities to reduce global warming!
LOL!
If God didn’t want us to eat meat he wouldn’t have made cows out of steak.
Not by bread alone but by every word of total nonsense the leftist ministers can shovel out.
...to their increasingly empty churches.
No salami? Sigh. No reason to offer to play hide the salami on a date, then. Ruins it.
