What would happen if everyone stopped eating meat tomorrow? - Carolyn Beans

Explore the possibilities and challenges of what a vegetarian world could look like if we all immediately stopped eating meat. -- Imagine if a wizard of meatless dining suddenly appeared on Earth and with one wave of a wand wiped away all meat from our shelves— along with any desire to eat it. Farm animals destined for food vanish, whisked away to another planet. What happens in the following days, years, and even millennia? Carolyn Beans explores what a vegetarian world could look like.
