I think focusing on the entire meat industry is counterproductive. Meat forms the foundation of a lot of cultures (in terms of cuisine, if nothing else). However, not all meat is created equal. Beef, for example, is notoriously bad for the environment and uses an astonishing amount of land. Replacing beef with chicken, fish, or even pork or lamb would do wonders for the emissions footprint of the agriculture industry.
