Consumption strategies
• Meat tax
• Ban on processed meat in default kids meals
• Waiving licensing fees for food trucks with plant-rich
offerings
• Requiring supply chain emissions reporting for food
companies that do business with governments
• Public awareness campaign such as Meatless Monday
Beyond procurement: Other policies
encouraging meat reduction

Production strategies
• Shifting subsidies away from meat and dairy and toward
healthy foods that are under-consumed
• Internalizing the externalities of meat and dairy production
by holding the companies financially responsible for their
pollution, emissions, overuse of antibiotics, etc.
• “Just transition” away from industrial animal agriculture
