New York City Mayor Eric Adams hopes to reduce carbon emissions from food by serving less meat and more plant-based options at city-run facilities. He is not tracking or limiting residents’ food and dairy consumption as social posts say.
An Instagram post claimed the New York City mayor"plans to track and limit meat and dairy" but it leaves out key details.
Adams in April announced an effort to reduce emissions from food served by city agencies, inspired by a report that found food consumption was the third-leading cause of emissions in the city. That report did not involve tracking individual purchases by city residents. Adams has already installed food standards that limit the number of times red meat can be served at city-run facilities, and he has added more plant-based options at schools and hospitals. He has not sought to limit people’s dining habits.
The statement contains an element of truth in that Adams does support policies that limit red meat offerings by city agencies. But these efforts do not involve tracking individuals’ meal choices.
