Food #tax reforms can bring substantial #environment & #health benefits (lower #carbon footprint, pesticide & #fertilizer use, ammonia #emissions; lives saved), while cost-neutral designs ensure no income group is financially disadvantaged: doi.org/10.1016/j.ec... #meat #meattax #taxes #taxation

Reducing meat consumption is key to address #environment & #health challenges. In #Finland, acceptance of #taxing the most harmful #meat products has the highest acceptance, driven by perceived #fairness; environmental risk perception has a large indirect effect: doi.org/10.1016/j.sp... #meattax

Consumption of red & processed #meat is above #sustainable & healthy dietary targets in #Mexico. Policies to promote greater adherence, such as a #meattax, are needed. Increasing the #price of meat thru a #tax can increase demand for healthier substitutes… (1/2) doi.org/10.1371/jour...

(6/6) For all households, lower #prices have the largest impact on choosing #plant-based protein. While #taxes may have less public support, learning from #sugartax, they can be effective given the right design, compensatory measures, and public messaging: https://doi.org/10.1787/97c4041a-en #meattax

Setting #VAT rates based on #health, climate & #environment considerations (lower for fruit & #vegetables, higher for #meat & #dairy) can help #citizens choose healthier & more #sustainable diets that are more affordable: https://www.oxfordmartin.ox.ac.uk/news/reform-vat-on-foods-to-make-healthy-and-sustainable-eating-more-affordable #diets #emissions #taxes #meattax

A #carbontax on emission-intensive agricultural goods – #meat, #dairy – can reduce agricultural emissions in Germany by over 20% & generate #revenues over 8 billion EUR/year. Used for a compensation scheme, a carbon #tax can have a progressive #incomedistribution effect & increase social acceptance. Carbon #taxes on agricultural goods can help achieve the sectoral #emissions reductions targeted by the government: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodpol.2024.102794 #climatechange #meattax #taxation #Germany

The European #foodsystems are neither healthy nor #sustainable. Too many animal-based & too few #plant-based products are consumed. A corresponding adjustment of value-added #taxes would benefit human #health, the #environment & the economy: https://www.thuenen.de/en/newsroom/detail/mehrwertsteuer-als-hebel-fuer-nachhaltige-ernaehrung #VAT #meattax #economics

(2/2) Social #norms are powerful. The shift how people think about #sugar drinks shows we could also imagine a healthier #foodsystem. Now people think: Why drink so much #soda? But what if we ask: Why doesn’t the food in our #grocery stores keep us healthy? https://news.berkeley.edu/2024/12/10/bay-area-soda-taxes-dont-just-affect-sales-they-help-change-peoples-minds/ #meattax

Sweden: A #tax on red & processed #meat becomes more acceptable if #consumers' total food #costs do not increase and #revenues are used for public #health & the #climate; it is most acceptable when it allows a #VAT reduction on fruit & greens: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodpol.2024.102772 #meattax #vegetables #Sweden

Germany's Future of #Agriculture Commission suggests gradually increasing the VAT on #meat and setting it to zero on fruit & #vegetables. This would have a #health-promoting effect and support arable #farmers & horticulture: https://www-tagesschau-de.translate.goog/wirtschaft/verbraucher/mehrwertsteuer-fleisch-100.html?_x_tr_sl=de&_x_tr_tl=en #taxes #meattax #horticulture

Most people support demand-side food policies that add to living costs (#meattax) if combined with compensation policies (discounts for fresh foods, #plantbased alternatives & #meat substitutes) and supply-side regulations (higher #animalwelfare standards) https://foodsystemeconomics.org/policy/global-policy-report/

To reduce the environment #footprint of the #foodsystem we must shift to more #plantbased diets. A CO2 #label on food products can be effective & increase individuals' support for more stringent policy measures (e.g. #meattax) over time: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvp.2023.102216 #carbon #labeling

In rich countries where animal food consumption is at very high levels, demand-side #prices-based interventions (consumption #taxes on meat, #carbontax on GHG #emissions) may help reduce #meat & #dairy demand, given price #elasticities in studies: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodpol.2023.102581 #meattax

#Misinformation is a challenge but the success of the UK’s sugar tax suggests the feasibility of a #tax on food. If implemented effectively, a #MeatTax could tackle #health and environmental issues.

Car crash interview one:
Fishi Sunk constantly claims no one knows what #Starmer stands for, so therefore he accuses Sir Keir of being untrustworthy.
This being the case:
1. Who proposed the #MeatTax
2. Who proposed households needing SEVEN recycling bins?
3. Who proposed compulsory car sharing?

🚨Trouble for #Sunak as #Tory MPs in blue wall left ‘vulnerable’ by PM’s net zero U-turns🚨
The Tories are predicted to hold just 29 out of 52 seats in the southeast, according to analysis of over 20k voters by Survation, where #Conservative voters say climate policies are important to how they will vote.
Sunak was widely mocked for axing policies that didn't exist, such as the #MeatTax #7Bins & compulsory car sharing.

@glynmoody
So, #ToriesLied about the seven bins and #MeatTax. No surprise.I think #Labour should play along and #KierStarmer announce that he will end Tory plans for:
- Shoe Tax
- Mandatory Fox Hunting
- Used Loo Roll RecyclingClearly Tories don't intend to fight the next #GE in the realm of reality.

Now that #RishiSunak takes credit for stopping a #MeatTax that never was proposed, it's time for #KierStarmer to up the ante.
Starmer should use #PMQ to challenge Sunak to explain what secret plans for a meat tax *were* under consideration or admit that he lied.

#AirTravelTaxIf we were ever under the illusion the Tories gave a rat's arse about climate change, today's insidious net zero sidestep from Sunk proved not even planet earth burning will stop them trying to slither under a snake's belly to win #GE2024.
Be warned! Be prepared! Campaigning for the next #GeneralElection has unofficially begun & the battleground is the climate! 😳

@paulpeace
Yep, tax animal agriculture out of existence. As much as I like the idea, there is a risk we'd end up with more animal suffering, at least in the short- and medium-term.A meat tax has little consumer support, so most likely a tax would foremost or only be applied to the flesh of those animals that contribute most to global warming, ruminants. And consumers might just switch to eating more chickens, pigs and fishes.
It's explained here in more detail:
