      What do the percentages represent? Percentage of calories, of percentage of the meal in weight? Why is 0% plant-based the baseline? I don’t think it’s very common to eat nothing plant-based

      The projections are based on two peer-reviewed datasets modeling the interaction between biodiversity decline and livestock production trajectories:

      Biodiversity modeling: Phillips et al., Natural History Museum Biodiversity Intactness Index (BII) – tracks species population decline across biomes under different land-use scenarios.

      Livestock production: Kozicka et al., GLOBIOM-IIASA – projects agricultural land use and livestock production through 2050 under business-as-usual scenarios.

      The collapse threshold (BII < 0.50) is based on planetary boundaries research indicating when ecosystem function becomes critically impaired. The model shows this threshold crossed around 2036-2037 under current dietary trajectories.

      The 50%+ plant-based adoption scenarios show recovery because they release enough agricultural land to halt and reverse biodiversity loss before crossing irreversibility.

      Key supporting research:

      ∙ Poore & Nemecek 2018 (Science) – land-use impact of food systems

      ∙ Ceballos et al. 2017 (PNAS) – biological annihilation and extinction acceleration

      ∙ Steffen et al. 2015 (Science) – planetary boundaries framework

      Happy to clarify any specific modeling assumptions.

      There’s a large difference between various forms of animal based protein – wild wish, farmed fish, beef, dairy, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens. But they are all lumped into one.
