Klimatale om kødforbrug og Meatless Monday

Thank you for allowing me to attend the Youth Climate Summit. Today I want

to talk about something important about how eating meat affects our

environment.

A recent United Nations report showed that the meat industry produces more

greenhouse gases than all cars, trucks, planes and ships combined. This is a

big deal because these glasses are destroying our climate.

Meat production accounts for approximately 30% of global greenhouse gases.

It's not just the gases from meat production that cause deforestation, we cut

down a lot of trees, but we also use a lot of water and resources that could be

used for other purposes. Faced with this problem, we must make decisions

that are good for our planet.One idea that is gaining attention around the

world is Meatless Monday.

You may be wondering whether a day without meat actually makes a

difference. Well, it’s important to understand that when a lot of people make

the same choice, it adds up. Meatless Monday demonstrates a shift in our

thinking by recognizing the impact of our choices on the environment and

committing to a more sustainable lifestyle. It may not solve every problem, but

it's a step in the right direction.
