Divestment from animal agriculture / livestock-heavy investments

Divestment from animal agriculture is critical due to its significant contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, with animal-based diets linked to over 50% higher environmental impacts compared to plant-based diets, including higher land use, water use, and biodiversity loss [Scarborough et al., 2023]. Animal agriculture accounts for over 54% of anthropogenic methane emissions, a potent driver of climate change, and reducing its scale can rapidly slow global warming while enabling food systems to transition into carbon sinks [Rockström et al., 2023].
