Circularity in animal production requires a change in the EAT-Lancet diet in Europe

Benjamin van Selm et al.

Summary: A resource-allocation model was used to compare the effects of circularity on animal-source nutrients in Europe with the EAT-Lancet reference diet, finding compatibility in total animal-source proteins but not specific animal-source foods. Circular food systems can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 31% and arable land use by up to 42%, but careful consideration of the substitutability between animal-source foods is needed to define their potential roles in human diets.

Small targeted dietary changes can yield substantial gains for human and environmental health

Katerina S. Stylianou et al.

Summary: This study combines a new epidemiology-based nutritional index and 18 environmental indicators to estimate the positive impact of specific food substitutions. The analysis shows that substituting only 10% of daily caloric intake from beef and processed meat for fruits, vegetables, nuts, legumes and selected seafood could offer substantial health improvements and reduce dietary carbon footprint.

Reshaping the European agro-food system and closing its nitrogen cycle: The potential of combining dietary change, agroecology, and circularity

Gilles Billen et al.

Summary: The article explores how nitrogen losses in Europe's agro-food system can be drastically reduced by changing dietary habits, promoting organic crop rotation systems, and reconnecting livestock with cropping systems, allowing for feeding the projected European population in 2050 without feed imports and with half the current level of environmental nitrogen losses.
