Looks slightly off TBH, sources? Nuts being lowest, while Palm oil being quite high. Nuts are efficient, especially when considering caloric value, but I'm pretty sure something like a potato is better per kg. Palm oil AFAIK is a very efficient (most efficient vegetable) oil, might be that the destruction of highly carbon rich forest is factored in there maybe...

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

indonesian forests are f'uped from all those plantations. brazil/amazon is destroying the amazon for chinese consumption of cows. all these are jungle/tropical area which hold mega biodiversity, many plants are undiscovered, and such, and some are so rare(mycoheterotrophs, parasitic) that they can easily be wiped out.
Being alive is bad for the environment.
Mmm, close to 700 comments. Have fun yall.
Also not having kids. Strange how that one is left out.
Considering this is about food that humans eat it makes sense that they don't include children on this chart.
Unless you're living in a candy house in the middle of the woods, then yeah, you have a point.
Well the post tile says "other than not having a car and voting" which are also not about food.
I get the linked article is about food, but OP worded the post in such a way that it's just factually incorrect
Rice and refried beans for me! (my cholesterol is high)
Just be sure to scrutinize the ingredients in those refried beans. A lot of them contain lard.
Also, don't forget to include as many dark leafy greens in those rice and beans, which will help a lot in lowering cholesterol.
Roughly true, but you're eliding a very, very problematic activity into "travel": aviation.
Per kilometer, flying is pretty carbon intensive (about the same as driving - basically: the extra efficiency of being packed into a tin can is offset by exponentially higher wind resistance at high speed). The problem is that airplanes allow you to burn up massive distances really quickly.
A single transatlantic flight will blow a ~~2-ton~~1-ton hole in your personal carbon footprint. That's 10-20% of an average European's annual footprint - or ~~100%~~ a very large chunk of a sustainable annual footprint. For anyone who flies more than once a year (i.e. likely a bunch of people here), cutting down on flying is likely to be the single biggest thing you can do for the climate.
I thought it was overthrowing oppressive world governments and holding environmentally-damaging businesses accountable for their actions, hm.
When populations are starving to death in 2044, pat yourself on the back for not eating red meat.
True. Though maybe also activism until manufacturers are held accountable for their production methods and clean up costs. I do my share but I'm tired of being told it's on me. It's on corporate greed. Instead of spending on lobbying to avoid any changes to the status quo, they could spend much less coming up with different cleaner methods of production.
