Many environmental NGOs are now advocating plant-based diets as a solution to climate change, yet is this approach to eating compatible with the productive capacity of sustainable farming systems in the UK? What can the UK produce in a truly sustainable way?
In order to answer this question, we need to differentiate between livestock that are part of the problem—feedlot beef, intensively reared chickens and pigs, intensive dairy—and livestock products that come from systems which can be part of the solution. Join our speakers to debate how the UK should move towards a sustainable diet that is linked to sustainable farming – and what this diet looks like.
