Europe’s Green Deal offshores environmental damage to other nations
Climate strategies require that Europe decrease its currently large land carbon footprint. This is feasible. over the next decade and beyond, and meat consumption has probably peaked. Because yields should continue to grow, the same models that project vast cropland expansion globally in 2010–50 typically project that the area of European cropland will reduce by 10 Mha to 50 Mha. Without European reductions, global cropland is therefore likely to expand even more.
