Surveyed ~200 climate experts on the livestock sector and what needs to be done to meet the Paris targets.
- The largest number of experts agree that reducing the consumption of livestock products (58%) and reducing the number of animals farmed (45%) have potential to make very large contributions to this target
- To align with the Paris Agreement, most (85%) experts agree it is important that human diets shift from livestock-derived foods to livestock replacement foods.
