And what, eat this cute lobster?

Shun meat, says UN climate chief:

Dr Pachauri has just been re-appointed for a second six-year term as chairman of the Nobel Prize-winning IPCC, the body that collates and evaluates climate data for the world’s governments.

“The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has estimated that direct emissions from meat production account for about 18% of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions,” he told BBC News.

“So I want to highlight the fact that among options for mitigating climate change, changing diets is something one should consider.”

Meat tastes good and is natural, so I’ll stick with that. There are better ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (and that’s only part of what causes global warming).

Now go plant a tree and eat a hamburger.
