🐄🐓🐖 I'd argue livestock, managed sustainably, can play an important role in future. But at a population level, we do need to reduce our meat consumption. How fast, how far and how will remain contentious.

➗ 'What we should eat' will remain controversial, as there are so many vested interests out there. Not all meat and not all plants are produced equally, hence we need to be careful about lumping everything into homogenous food groups.

🥩 At a global average, it talks of a dietary target no more than two servings of poultry, 1 serving of red meat (with a hamburger given as an example - interesting in itself) and 2 eggs per week. The work acknowledges the variety of diets in different parts of the world

Thanks Harleen. Good question. Lots of potential answers to that, but I’d probably say we need a Food Act (to put good intentions into legislation) and need to sort out social security (so that everyone knows where their next meal is coming from)

Agreed Guy (although she’s Environment AND Food & Rural Affairs Secretary - always annoys me when the food bit in particular gets missed out! 😊)

Later this month, we're publishing the final Citizens' Manifesto from #TheFoodConversation – and bringing citizen voices to decision-makers around the UK.
