A Meatless ASEAN?
Man’s appetite for meat and dairy products is having serious environmental consequences. Based on a report by Asia Research and Engagement, Asia’s seafood and meat consumption will rise by 78 percent in 2050, and this rise will likely have an impact on the environment. As reported by the United Nations (UN) Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), 30 percent of the Earth’s landmass is used to raise animal food.
