Letters to the Editor: Climate data on eating red meat speaks for itself

'Research published in the journal Science in 2018 revealed that avoiding meat and dairy products is the single biggest way that we as individuals can reduce our environmental impact on the planet.'

Further to the EPA’s decision to delete a tweet advising people to cut their red meat consumption after it angered some farmers, I presume it will adopt a consistent approach and self-censor regarding all other evidence-based environmental advisories it may wish to issue in the future? For example, I presume it will refrain from advising people to avoid driving SUVs, lest it anger the SUV industry, and from advising people to fly as little as possible, lest it anger the aviation industry.

Whatever about some farmers’ anger, the data speaks for itself.
