They should actually focus on things that have the biggest impact on climate change, and that's certainly not Meat production, but Oil and gas.

Stop chasing that most visible way to fight climate change rather than the most effective one.

We can do multiple things to address climate change at the same time. My proposition is to slowly redirect all the animal agriculture subsidies elsewhere. Animal products going up in price by 3 - 10 fold would surely decrease consumption.
The questions is do people actually want less meat? If they don't then we simply shouldn't do it

You shouldn't aim to make people life's worse, rather one should fix climate change in the least disruptive way possible, which is basically focusing on the infrastructure.
