European Livestock Voice Debate: Is livestock really destroying the planet?

The livestock sector is blamed for all sorts of ailments, from CO2 emissions to unsustainable meat production, a supposedly « unhealthy » food. Numerous calls have been issued to curb livestock farming, meat consumption, etc. As we move to a greener future with a stronger focus on health, it’s time to examine both the pros and cons of livestock in a multifaceted debate.
