It is a “planetary diet” – a diet in which products of plant origin predominate.
This is stated in this year’s analysis Eat-Lancet commissions that scientists from all over the world have worked on informs Associated Press.
“If we do not move away from the unstable food path we move today, we fail in the climatic agenda. We fail in the agenda of biological diversity, food security and many directions”– said the co -author of the work, the head of the Postdam Institute of Climate Research by Johan Rockstrom.
In the first Eat-Lanace report, scientists have offered a “planetary health diet”, in which the focus is on cereals, fruits, vegetables, nuts and legumes. The updated analysis shows that for improved health and simultaneous reduction of global warming, people should consume one portion of animal protein and dairy products a day. In this case, red meat is advised to eat about once a week.
This is especially true for people in developed countries that disproportionately contribute to climate change and have a greater choice of products in the diet.
Diet recommendations are based on data on the risks of diseases that can be prevented, such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
However, the diet did not take into account environmental criteria. However, researchers say the interests of human health and planet are consistent.
According to Project DrawDown, Emily Kassidi, a research employee of the organization in the climatology, people often associate with their own identity what they eat. Therefore, strict diets can scare away. The expert who did not participate in the work is convinced that even small changes in the diet can have a positive impact.
In addition, scientists have concluded that food systems are the greatest culprit of the approaching climatic crisis.
According to scientists, changing the diet of the planet’s population can reduce greenhouse gas emissions in agriculture by 15%. All because the production of meat, in particular red, provides emissions of a large amount of gases that heat the earth.
In this case, increasing crop yields, reducing food waste and other improvements can increase the positive effects of changes to 20%.
Experts believe that without significant changes in the food system, the worst effects of climate change will be inevitable, even if humanity becomes more eco -friendly energy sources.
Earlier scientists told about another danger of interval starvation.
