Since it isn't mentioned in the article, here is the reference: paper (2014)

In the study it even shows how driving a 10 years car for 6000 miles is rougly two years of saved emission with a meat->vegan switch.

I don't know, changing dietary is obviously good for the health, but these results seems to make pretty useless changes, use the bike and save twice as much.

EDIT: There is a new paper (2023), it is in a reply.

From the way you worded it, it sounds like not eating meat is five times as effective than not driving in the same time period.

Though we can always do both to any degree we can.

Sorry for the botchered English, it's not my first language, as you may have guessed.
