By 2050, Britain will be a Muslim nation, so good luck with that, buddy.
Britain must cut its meat and dairy consumption by up to 50pc to meet the latest net zero targets, the Government’s climate watchdog has said.
The Climate Change Committee said in an ideal scenario, meat and dairy consumption should halve by 2050 and products be substituted with plant-based options.
The proposals are part of new net zero targets that have been recommended to Ed Miliband, the Energy Secretary.
In a letter to Mr Miliband, the committee said the Government must cut CO2 emissions by 81pc by 2035 when compared to the benchmark year of 1990. This would amount to a reduction of 200m tonnes from the current level of 384m tonnes.
Piers Forster, the CCC’s chairman, said persuading British consumers to change their diets would play a key role in achieving such massive cuts.
Mr Forster did not specify how the UK could reduce meat eating but options could include reducing subsidies for livestock, taxing meat products and a clampdown by regulators on advertising.

Ooooo…cool game. I want to play.
Orson did not specify how the UK could reduce charlatan based climate propaganda, but options could include removal of grant money for preconceived results unsubstantiated by actual documentation, taxing of carbon credits and application of class action suits against carbon credit schemes where no hold harmless agreement was included in the terms of purchase, and clamp down on unproven accusations relative to anthropomorphic climate change…the ozone hole…global warming….global cooling…dust being a pollutant…polar bears approaching extinction…
When the old left draped themselves in green after the fall of the Berlin Wall, they set on a path that succeeded in destroying capitalism like no previous Marxist class struggle could have accomplished. The Climate hysteria has become the opiate that has replaced Christianity and is enabling the blob to destroy the western world’s economies by their own hands through democracies of infantilized voters. The BRICs are laughing as the west implodes.

A filthy ,dirty Communist, from a family of communists going back generations all the way back to the Soviet Union
Milliband will taken out one way or another.
Does anyone out there have a functioning brain. Net zero is government fantasy and physical impossibility. CO2 is not a problem, without an adequate amount in the atmosphere we all die, got that, all of us. Right now it could be 2000 ppm and not be a problem, as it currently is 400 ppm and that is too low.
Tax meat? A “sin tax” on meat? So meat … essential for good health … is now treated like cigarettes? or booze?
Yes, the leftists and anti-Trump Tories have completely lost the plot
all of Europe will be controlled by Muslims by 2050 and Canada will not be far behind
I bet government employees will be exempt from any program that requires reductions of their “carbon footprint”.
Much like in Canada, they won’t be required to reduce the heating loads of their buildings to the minimum of 16 degrees C like legislation allows, nor will they reduce their flights, especially sending the maximum number of people to exotic locations for “climate change conferences”.
I went to the grocery store yesterday and looked at steak. Two rib steaks, not very big, were $65. Superstore. There is a war on meat, the envirozealots in power do not want us to eat it anymore and their methods of using taxes and regulations to price beef out of our reach is working. It’s a shame because I really like a good steak. I think that unless the provincial governments act to remove these new environmental regulations to lower prices, we will be eating whatever the greenies say that we should eat (bugs). But it looks like SK is about to lurch to the left and any chance of that happening is going out the window.
Doctors tell us to eat more meat. Our gov’t tries to outlaw meat.
