Become vegetarian

Even swapping 1 meat meal per week for 1 vegan meal can make a difference if everyone did that.

In my experience cooking for meat loving friends, there are lots of vegan dishes they like. Switching 1 meal a week does not really impact their “meat menu” pallet. Don’t try to replicate meat. Enjoy vegan cuisine for what it is.

FYI I eat meat but I enjoy a lot of vegan meals. I don’t like vegan “tastes like meat” dishes though.

This. If you want a direct, measurable impact/reduction in impact, go veggie.

I think the idea of going 100% or subscribing to label scares off a lot of people. Just reducing meat consumption has an impact. See my comment above.
