Berkeley, Calif. — There is no question that the U.S. meat industry produces significant environmental, social, and ethical harms. Beef production accounts for over 3% of U.S. emissions and is a major contributor to air and water pollution.

What is the solution to this problem? Can we rely on alternative sources of meat — i.e. plant-based or cultivated meat — to drive down consumption? What about legislation that increases the price of meat? Or, should we focus on reducing the negative environmental impacts of meat production through technology and best practices?
