While meat can be sustainably produced in certain regions. That isn't true in the Netherlands. They are absolutely filled to the brim with livestock with huge issues with water pollution and algal blooms as a result. Good on them for trying to reduce their meat consumption.
This is important to realise. They just hit the limits of local meat production - supply and demand isn't working anymore, so they transition to a more economic and efficient source. This also does make it more environmentally friendly as a side effect, its more implicit in this case.
