The Euromonitor Environmental Impact Score is a score that determines the environmental impact of proteins. The score incorporates carbon emissions, water usage, land usage and the protein content of different foodstuffs.
Pork, poultry or beef are the leading sources of protein globally, often linked to cultural tradition. Eggs and milk are far more sustainable, but they also contribute significantly less protein in comparison to meat sources.
Pulse protein is the least environmentally impactful, but they only take on a significant role in cultures where vegetarianism is prominent. Even there, the consumption of protein from pulses is low compared to the daily requirement.
A high water impact for soybean underpins it having the second highest environmental impact behind beef. Pulses are the most sustainable. Their production uses the least land and water and emits the least carbon.
Insects fulfil protein quality requirements and are far more sustainable than meat. Western consumers are slowly warming to the idea of insects as a food, but normalisation of the concept is still a long way away.
