A graph comparing the greenhouse gas emissions of various protein-rich foods, measured in kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents (kgCO2 eq) per 100 grams of protein. The chart features colorful curves representing different food items, with the height of each curve indicating the level of emissions associated with its production. The bottom line is that plant-based protein sources still have a lower footprint than the lowest-impact meat products. Sources are credited to Joseph Poore and Thomas Nemecek (2018) for the data and Our World in Data for the visualization

If you want to reduce the carbon footprint of your diet, less meat is nearly always better than sustainable meat.

Corlett 1 2 Show more Add to Mendeley Share Cite https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tree.2024.11.007 Get rights and content Highlights The fossil record suggests that climate change was the major driver of plant extinctions and regional extirpations from the Pliocene until recently, when anthropogenic habitat loss became dominant. Known recent plant extinctions are disproportionately few in comparison with well-studied animal taxa, but many more species are probably committed to inevitable extinction unless given targeted support. Recent warm-edge extirpations demonstrate the growing impact of anthropogenic climate change and show that predictions of massive climate-driven extinctions later this century are plausible. The proximate causes for population extirpations are still rarely known but are likely to be highly varied and both species and location specific."

Hi! If there is space, would be great if you could add me to this! :)

A loss of vegetation can cause a super severe and long-lasting hyperthermal, like after the Permian-Triassic mass extinctiomn. And an incomplete recovery could even cause a shift into a warmer climate steady state!

Applying an eco-evolutionary vegetation and carbon cycle model to different Phanerozoic LIPs, we find that the capacity of vegetation to adapt through evolution or to disperse in a specific paleogeography can result in a large range of possible climate trajectories!

Biogeographic climate sensitivity controls Earth system response to large igneous province carbon degassing Periods of large igneous province (LIP) magmatism have shaped Earth’s biological and climatic history, causing major climatic shifts and biological reorganizations. The vegetation response to LIP-indu...

Happy to see this out! How does the speed of vegetation recovery affect the long-term climate after a massive magmatic carbon degassing?

Super stoked to see this paper out today! We've made a model for global C, O and P cycles over Earth history and it does a fair job of matching combined proxies. The key driver for oxygen rise is the build up of crustal carbon.

Our new paper on the future of ecosystems is out today! We used climate and biome models to infer how anthropogenic CO2 emissions might shape the global distribution of different vegetation types over the next 500 years 🌎🌲🌴🌵
