Wheres the beef*

Theres been some consternation over the FDAs , with nutritionists arguing that, while the emphasis on whole foods (as opposed to processed) is a plus, (see also ).

There could be material economic costs as well. The Federal goverment not counting the offered ranchers on Federal land. And as r, the benifits are flowing to fewer, wealthier (like Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Jeff Bezos, a clutch of large corporations, and foreign investors).

Then there are the . ponders the potential scale of that impact if the new pyramid is followed

The s new dietary urging Americans to eat far more meat and dairy products will, if followed, come at a major cost to the planet via huge swathes of habitat razed for farmland and millions of tons of extra planet-heating .

A new inverted food recently released by Donald Trumps health department emphasizes pictures of steak, poultry, ground beef and whole milk, alongside fruits and vegetables, as the most important foods to eat.

The new guidelines are designed to nearly double the amount of protein currently consumed by Americans. Protein and healthy fats are essential and were wrongly discouraged in prior dietary guidelines, said , the US health secretary. We are ending the war on saturated fats.

But a surge in meat-eating by Americans would involve flattening vast tracts of ecosystems such as forests to make way for the of raised livestock, emitting large quantities of greenhouse gases in the process, experts have warned.

Even a 25% increase in the amount of protein consumed in this way in the US would require about 100m acres of additional agricultural land each year, an area about the size of California, and add hundreds of millions of tons of extra pollution to an already , according to an estimate by the World Resources Institute (WRI), a non-profit research body.

We are seeing millions of acres of forest cut down and agricultural expansion is the lead driver of that adding 100m acres to that to feed the US means additional pressure on the worlds remaining ecosystems, said Richard Waite, the director of agriculture initiatives at WRI.

Its already hard to feed the global population while reducing emissions and stopping deforestation, and a shift in this direction would make the challenge even harder. We need to reduce the impact of our food systems urgently and the US is an important piece of the puzzle in doing that.

While many Americans will simply ignore the guidelines, the new framework will probably influence institutions such as schools and federal workplaces. The average American about 144kg (317lb) of meat and seafood a year, second globally only to Portugal, and ingests more protein than previous federal government guidelines recommended.

Any further increase will be felt in places such as the , which is already being at a rapid rate for cattle ranches and to grow livestock feed.

Red meat, in particular, has an upon the planet beef 20 times more land and emits 20 times more greenhouse gas emissions per gram of protein than common plant proteins, such as beans. The raising of cows, pigs, lamb and other animals for slaughter is also associated with air and water pollution.

To the extent that people follow these guidelines and eat more animal protein foods, particularly beef and dairy, they will negatively impact our environment, since the production of these foods emits way more greenhouse gases than vegetable protein foods, or even other animal foods, said Diego Rose, a director of nutrition at Tulane University.

Choosing beef over beans and lentils is a big choice we make that has real consequences, said Waite. If people want more protein there are ways to do that via eating plant-based foods without the environmental impacts. We can have our protein and our forests, too.

Animal agriculture is responsible for about a fifth of global emissions, with little progress made in recent years to reduce its impact as more of the world starts to demand meat products. Worldwide consumption of pork, beef, poultry and meat is projected to reach over 500m tonnes by 2050 what it was in 2000.

In the US, much of this meat-eating is concentrated in a relatively small group of avid carnivores just 12% of Americans consume nearly half of the countrys beef, a 2024 study . But plant-based options, including fake meat burgers, have suffered a in recent years amid a resurgent , fueled by online and a broader desire to consume more protein.

The environmental problems associated with the meat industry were previously highlighted by Kennedy himself, when he was a campaigner on green issues. At one point, Kennedy the pork industry was an even bigger threat to the US than Osama bin Laden, the terrorist mastermind.

The factory meat industry has polluted thousands of miles of Americas rivers, killed billions of fish, pushed tens of thousands of family farmers off their land, sickened and killed thousands of US citizens, and treated millions of farm animals with unspeakable and unnecessary cruelty, Kennedy in 2004.

However, since becoming Trumps health secretary, Kennedy has sought to meat-eating, dismissing an independent scientific committees to emphasize to instead favor meat.

The will no longer weaponize federal food policy to destroy the livelihoods of hard-working American ranchers and protein producers under the radical dogma of the Green New Scam, a spokesperson for the Department of Health and Human Services said in response to questions about the knock-on environmental impacts of the new guidelines.

Americans already eat a lot of meat, so this promotion of more meat and things like beef tallow is puzzling to me, said Benjamin Goldstein, a researcher at the University of Michigan who has studied the huge emissions associated with meat-eating by city-dwellers in the US.

We needed to be addressing climate change two decades ago and we are still not doing enough now. If we are adding more greenhouse gases to impose unnecessary ideas of protein intake, thats going to destabilize the climate further. Its going to have a big impact.

Even 25% increase in meat and dairy consumption would require 100m more acres of agricultural land: , from in .

Wales at critical tipping point as new report warns nature crisis is already here

Neil Sachdev issued the stark message as NRW launched its latest State of Natural Resources Report (SoNaRR 2025) a major assessment published under the Environment Act and designed to inform political debate ahead of the Senedd elections.

The report paints a bleak picture of Wales natural environment, warning that the country is one of the most naturedepleted in the world, with almost one in five species now at risk of extinction. Only 40% of water bodies meet good status, and ecosystems across Wales are struggling under the combined weight of climate change, pollution, habitat loss and unsustainable land use.

NRW says the pressures are now systemic, built into everyday life from how homes are heated to how food is produced, how people travel and how land is developed. While progress has been made in areas such as peatland restoration, air quality legislation and the Sustainable Farming Scheme, the report warns Wales is still consuming and degrading natural resources faster than they can be replenished.

Launching the report at Cardiff Universitys Spark Innovation Campus, Neil Sachdev said Wales must now embrace major systems change.

Neil Sachdev, Chair of Natural Resources Wales, said:

SoNaRR has shown us that the most damaging pressures on nature are not confined to environmental policy. They are built into how we heat our homes, how we travel, how we grow and consume food, how we use land, and how we invest in places. If Wales is to remain a place where people and nature thrive, we must change the systems themselves not just manage their impacts.

He said SoNaRR was the diagnosis, while a new chapter titled Bridges to the Future sets out a shared response, offering a roadmap for transforming Wales food, energy, transport and land systems.

The launch brought together senior figures including Deputy First Minister Huw IrrancaDavies, Future Generations Commissioner Derek Walker and Elspeth Jones, Nature Guardian for the National Infrastructure Commission Wales.

Derek Walker, Future Generations Commissioner for Wales, said:

Nature is one of our most powerful allies in creating better lives for all of us. Without urgent, coordinated action across the public sector to halt and reverse the dangerous decline laid out in SoNaRR 2025, we are quite literally putting lives at risk unnecessarily.

He warned that the consequences of failing to act would fall hardest on the most disadvantaged communities.

Deputy First Minister Huw IrrancaDavies said:

Protecting and enhancing nature is essential for people today, and for future generations. The people of Wales have made real progress but we need to go further again. This report sets out how we can work together to respond, strengthening action to restore nature, tackle pollution and build resilience to climate change.

The SoNaRR 2025 assessment concludes that Wales is still not meeting any of the four longterm aims of sustainable natural resource management. Ecosystem resilience remains low, environmental risks are unevenly distributed across communities, and Wales consumption levels far exceed sustainable limits.

Neil Sachdev said the findings must act as a turning point.

Neil Sachdev added:

This is not just a warning about our future it is a reckoning with our present. If we act now, with urgency and shared ownership, Wales can lead not just in ambition but by delivering the scale of transformation the nation needs. If we dont, the next SoNaRR will simply document deeper loss, higher costs and narrower choices.

NRW says the decisions made in the coming months will shape Wales for decades, urging leaders across all sectors to use the evidence to drive bold, longterm action.
