🤔Can beef ever truly be carbon-neutral? Find out: go.wri.org/beef-emissions-tw @WRIFood's latest research shows beef production requires vastly more land than other proteins. And that land carries a massive carbon opportunity cost. At present, it's nearly impossible to verifiably lower beef emissions without simply sourcing less of it.

There's no such thing as climate-friendly beef—despite growing "net zero" labels. New @WorldResources research reveals why: it's about the land. Beef needs 3x more cropland per kg of protein than eggs, pork, chicken – and 7x more than beans. Read more: bit.ly/3LkkDI6

Ghana exports $2.2B in cocoa each year, but this comes with steep losses to its forests. Now farmers are restoring them by planting trees & raising bees on their land. Better yields, extra income, and healthier land. This is what climate solutions look like. 🌳🍫 @WRIafrica
