π£ Hey people who eat beef!
You can very greatly reduce your food's environmental impact by switching to pretty much any other food apart from beef. Beef causes by far the greatest amount of CO2 emissions per gram of food.
Other meats have only a fraction of the CO2 emissions of beef, and plant-based food is even less. See the attached chart for some emissions numbers of common foods.
More info at https://ourworldindata.org/food-choice-vs-eating-local which is also the source of the chart.
