Earlier this year, the EAT-Lancet Commission Report on Food, Planet, Health was published in the Lancet. The report claims it has found the answer on how to eat better for human and planet health and includes some radical recommendations to limit the amount of meat and poultry in global diets.

This year, make your New Year’s resolution count and help our industry succeed into the future.
