[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2066302, member: 196898"] The diet to save the planet has been devised by the EAT Lancet consortium in Stockholm. This is a group of 21 scientists, of 20 are declared vegans, who originlly proposed a no animal / Plant Based diet for the world to save the planet, In their original draft of the plan, there were comments that the diet would need to be implemented by introducing taxation, and other restrictions on livestock to remove meat from the world diet. Some of the scientists were researching marine biology, so some fish was included in the plan, but red meat was prohibited. Not through choice, but by legislation. Although in the final draft (as in the OP above), a small pat of meat per week is allowed, it is not a major jump to realise that once this plan is in place, then the obvious next step is to up the ante and complete the task. It will not be Flexitarian for very long. Indeed, the Canadian version of Eatwell has already had all animal products removed from it as well as dairy foods, and is now plant based. This version of Eatwell is now the official diet for all in Canada, This is why there is such angst from Omnivores who wish to retain choice for all. [/QUOTE]
