Meat is a leading emissions source – but few outlets report on it, analysis finds

A recent analysis by Sentient Media highlights a concerning gap in climate reporting, revealing that less than 4% of climate news stories address animal agriculture as a significant source of carbon emissions. This is alarming because food and agriculture are responsible for one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions, ranking just behind fossil fuel combustion. The lack of coverage on this critical issue means that the public is not fully informed about the environmental impact of meat production, which is essential for driving meaningful change in climate policy and consumer behavior.
