“Save the planet with Meat Laws?” | #132

Faith and Economics

This weeks podcast the Gwartney team is talking about meat. Yes, meat! Here is why, climate change was a central policy for Joe Biden during the 2020 election, and last week the president hosted a summit with 40 world leaders to discuss their response to the crisis. At the virtual event, Biden announced a new target for the U.S to cut emissions by 50 to 52 percent by 2030 compared with 2005 levels. The summit was followed by claims on social media that Biden plans to cut meat consumption in the U.S. to combat climate change. Give the show a listen to see what the professors feel about this topic. Enjoy!
