Red meat may be getting a “climate change” tax in Denmark as the Danish government considers a proposal that views climate change as an ethical problem. The Danish Council of Ethics recommend an initial tax on beef, but may extend the regulation to all red meats and other foods based on their climate impact. According to the council, “The Danish way of life is far from climate-sustainable, and if we are to live up to the Paris Agreement target of keeping the global temperature rise 'well' below 2°C, it is necessary both to act quickly and involve food,” the council said. The council voted in favor of the proposal and will now be put before the government for consideration. Elliot Hill and Jo Ankier discuss Denmark’s approach to combating climate change on the Lip News.
