2021 was a breakthrough year for plant-based foods, cultivated meat and fermentation.
With world-class scientific institutions, innovative food producers and a strong plant-based market, the UK has the potential to be at the forefront of the transition to alternative proteins.
There is one sector that was completely absent from high level discussions, despite causing 21% of global emissions: animal agriculture.

GFI Europe calls on governments to direct at least 10% of the agricultural innovation funding announced at COP26 today towards changing meat production.
The Good Food Institute has welcomed a deforestation pledge – but is calling for some of the promised forest protection fund to be invested in sustainable food.
GFI will be on the ground in Glasgow, encouraging national governments to include sustainable proteins – making meat from plants and cultivating it from cells – into their national plans.
