| Researchers have documented for years that eating beef, pork and chicken has a significant environmental impact, especially when it comes to heating the planet. But it’s far from a uniform impact. What you eat, and where you eat it, can have a big effect on how much you’re contributing to climate change. For the first time, researchers calculated the planet-warming pollution emitted from raising the beef, pork and chicken Americans eat — their carbon “hoofprint” — for nearly every town and city in the country. |
