    Why do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our bodies, our planet, and other people?

    People in wealthier nations consume more meat products because meat is very expensive now these days and its simply because they can afford it. Meat consumption is responsible for the release of greenhouse gases such as methane, CO2, and nitrous oxide, which have a significant impact on our world. A meat-heavy diet is also linked to a slew of health problems.
