The UN’s leading authority on climate issues - the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - has issued a stark warning against measures that seem a good idea at first, but can actually be counterproductive. Some of these ‘maladaptive mitigations’ are, unsurprisingly, linked to animal agriculture. Claire Hamlett reports.

The use of pesticides in crop farming is a very common ‘gotcha’ that meat-eaters use against vegans when comparing the animal death toll and environmental impact of our food systems.
