The [[IPCC Sixth Assessment Report]] in 2022 stated that: "Diets high in plant protein and low in meat and dairy are associated with lower GHG emissions. [...] Where appropriate, a shift to [[Plant-based diet|diets with a higher share of plant protein]], moderate intake of animal-source foods and reduced intake of [[Saturated fat|saturated fats]] could lead to substantial decreases in GHG emissions. Benefits would also include reduced land occupation and nutrient losses to the surrounding environment, while at the same time providing health benefits and reducing mortality from diet-related non-communicable diseases."{{Bar chart|title=Mean greenhouse gas emissions for different food types|label6=[[Poultry]]|label13=[[Legumes]]|data12=1.2|label12=[[Maize]]|data11=1.2|label11=[[Wheat]]|data10=1.7|label10=[[List of root vegetables|Starchy Roots]]|data9=6.8|label9=[[Egg as food|Eggs]]|data8=8.6|label8=[[Fishery|Non-trawling Fishery]]|data7=9.1|label7=[[Dairy]]|data6=10|data5=10|float=right|label5=[[Pork]]|data4=12|label4=[[Aquaculture|Non-recirculating Aquaculture]]|data3=26|label3=[[Trawling|Trawling Fishery]]|data2=30|label2=[[Recirculating aquaculture system|Recirculating Aquaculture]]|data1=62|label1=[[Ruminant|Ruminant Meat]]|data_max=62|width_units=em|bar_width=20|data_type=Greenhouse Gas Emissions (g CO2-Ceq per g protein)|label_type=Food Types|data13=0.25}}According to a 2022 study quickly stopping animal agriculture would provide half the GHG emission reduction needed to meet the [[Paris Agreement]] goal of limiting global warming to 2 °C. There are calls to phase out livestock subsidies as part of a [[just transition]].
