New Commercial-Scale LCA Shows Plant-Based Meat Cuts Environmental Impact by 89%

Alternative proteins—meat made from plants, cultivated from animal cells, or produced via fermentation—offer consumers the foods they love made with more sustainable protein sources. To evaluate the potential of plant-based meat to reduce the environmental impacts of the food system, the Good Food Institute commissioned EarthShift Global to complete a comprehensive, ISO-certified life cycle assessment (LCA). This LCA is the most comprehensive, open-access LCA conducted to date (2024).
