London, Sept. 7 : One meat-free day a week can help tackle climate change, claims Dr. Rajendra Pachauri, the chairman of the United Nations Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (UNIPCC).
Pachauri, who last year earned a joint share of the Nobel Peace Prize, and was re-elected the panel''s chairman for a second six-year term last week, told The Observer that diet change is important because of the huge greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental problems - including habitat destruction - associated with rearing cattle and other animals.
