UN climate summit attendees demand meat taxes and rations while guzzling meat
Attendees at the UN’s Conference of Parties (COP) COP29 climate conference in Azerbaijan are gorging on meat while demanding governments take measures to reduce meat consumption.
Climate extremists claim that since livestock emits methane through flatulence and other secretions, people must stop eating meat to save the planet. This is a major policy held by globalist boides like the UN and the World Economic Forum, as well as by billionaire Bill Gates and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who recommends Americans eat fewer hamburgers.
Meat taxes and rations
At the COP29 summit, which runs from November 11th to the 22nd, the True Animal Protein Price (TAPP) Coalition addressed participants about the need to cut down on meat consumption through a meat tax.
“It’s normal — when I damage the window of my neighbor, I have to repair this damage, but meat and dairy processors also have to pay for the damage they cause,” said TAPP Managing Director Jeroom Remmers last week.
“Our current food systems are incompatible with the Paris Climate Accords,” TAPP Public Affairs and Policy Officer Willem Branten declared, referring to the 2016 UN agreement in which member states pledged to enforce the climate agenda. “Vegan diets are projected to have only half of the climate footprint as meat eaters,” he added.
ClimateDepot.com Executive Director Marc Morano, who attended the conference, said “prominent and high-profile” participants have been suggesting a variety of methods to force a reduction in meat consumption, including meat rationing. World War II-style meat rationing is a measure that has been floated by climate extremists in the legacy media.
Over 180 NGOs and governments signed a declaration ahead of the summit calling for a reduction in meat. At last year’s conference, the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) demanded countries cut back on meat for the climate.
No meat taxes or rations for climate attendees
And, like at last year’s summit, this year’s attendees have been helping themselves to copious amounts of beef without a meat tax. Morano posted a video of himself having a beef hot dog and reported that the meat dishes at the conference are selling “like hotcakes,” far more than the vegetarian options. Videos show significantly more interest at meat-selling food stations than those advertising vegan or vegetarian offerings.
“They're serving beef hot dogs, they're serving burgers. I have the menus here. Meat is here and I’ve not noticed any kind of meat tax,” Morano said.
COP28, held last year in Dubai, offered its 70,000 participants a selection of nearly 100 restaurants and food carts, at least a third of which specialized in beef and dairy dishes. Attendees were given choices of “juicy beef” and “slabs of succulent meat,” barbecued chicken and steak, hamburgers, Philly cheesesteaks, shawarma, carne asada, Tex Mex chicken, birria, kebabs, “melt-in-your-mouth BBQ,” smoked meats, and more.
