UECBV and 5 other European associations in favor of calling things by their name: products associated with meat may only be made from animal products
Seis organizaciones europeas (AVEC, CLITRAVI, Copa Cogeca, EFFAB, UECBV y la Confederación Internacional de Carniceros) han emitido una nota conjunta, en la que piden que se aborden las cuestiones que se plantean ante el uso de las denominaciones tradicionales de productos cárnicos y lácteos por parte de nuevos productos que se comercializan aprovechando dichos nombres sin ser precisamente eso, productos cárnicos o lácteos.
Livestock, an essential service. The UECBV appreciates the professionalism of the Food Heroes
Long queues at supermarkets and food shops. Half-empty shelves. Only a few products in refrigerators. When re-stocked, the items in much demand at our supermarkets are regularly seen to be the now infamous toilet paper, followed by essential foods such as meat, milk, eggs, bread, canned goods and pasta.Such scenes have been witnessed in several shops across Europe, and indeed the world. And many EU citizens born after the mid-1950s are not used to such experiences. But luckily – thanks to the many Food Heroes working against the clock throughout the entire food supply chain – food security should be the least of our worries in Europe in the face of this COVID-19 pandemic.

There has been a 51% drop in emissions from livestock as shown by the FAO statistics, largely due to the shift to a more specialised agricultural livestock system, with still relevant large margin for improvement.
