Exploring dietary guidelines based on ecological and nutritional values: A comparison of six dietary patterns (2014, background): “…the intertwined threats of the rate of biodiversity loss, disruption of the nitrogen cycle and the carbon cycle (i.e., climate change), land use change, freshwater use, and phosphate depletion, which are interlinked and amplified by animal protein conversion losses (De Boer and Aiking, 2011).”
Proteins from land plants – Potential resources for human nutrition and food security (2013, background): “As a consequence, meat production is responsible for a disproportionate share of food-related environmental pressure (de Boer & Aiking, 2011; Gilland, 2002).”
Climate change and meat eating: An inconvenient couple? (2013, methodology): “…by Heath and Gifford (2006) of a negative correlation between the value of care for nature and skepticism about the seriousness of climate change and the finding by de Boer and Aiking (2011) of a negative correlation between the value of care for nature and the frequency of meat consumption.”
