So if there's ONE THING you can do to make an outsized impact on improving the environment, it's to cut down on beef. Reduce your consumption of beef, or cut it out of your diet entirely. You could replace the beef in your diet with chicken, pork or literally anything else and it would still not come close to as damaging as beef is to the environment. Food for thought... pun intended.

I have known this for years, but I will admit, I have not really changed my habits. However, I think I will start reducing my beef consumption. I will stop eating beef burgers when I eat fast food and just get chicken instead. Some fast food restaurants have veggie options, such as mushroom or meat substitute (Beyond, Impossible), I'll have that instead if available. It's not a huge change for me, and this has a disproportionate impact.
