31 Jan 2020 --- The European Parliament will next week be presented with a plan to increase the price of meat across the EU to reflect its environmental costs, including CO2 emissions and biodiversity loss. The “sustainability charge” or fair-meat price proposal would apply to all member states by 2022 as part of the European Green Deal and Farm to Fork Strategy. “We ought to encourage and incentivize the production and consumption of plant-based foods if we are serious about addressing the environmental crisis we are in,” Sebastian Joy, CEO, ProVeg International tells FoodIngredientsFirst.
