Five meat companies – JBS, Marfrig, Tyson, Minerva and Cargill – combined emit more greenhouse gases than Chevron, Shell or BP.

Around 80% of these emissions come from cattle.

While science calls for reducing livestock emissions, Big Meat and Dairy are expanding fast.

The world’s biggest meat empire, JBS, plans to grow 70% by 2050 while walking back its climate commitments.
