E. Lucas, M. Guo, et al.
This study by Elysia Lucas, Miao Guo, and Gonzalo Guillén-Gosálbez explores how reducing animal-sourced foods can lead to significant cost savings and environmental benefits. With data showing that US$2 of external costs were hidden in every dollar spent on food in 2018, the potential shift to plant-based diets could save up to US$7.3 trillion while tackling climate change.
