   To feed the growing human population -- projected to reach   
   about 10 billion by 2050 -- while curbing planet-warming   
   emissions to ward off climate catastrophe, people across   
   the globe must significantly cut back on eating meat from   
   cows, sheep, and goats, according to a new study out   
   Wednesday.   
      
   Limits on meat-eating are among 22 proposals from the   
   report that, if simultaneously enacted, could achieve   
   "meeting growing demands for food, avoiding deforestation,   
   and reforesting or restoring abandoned and unproductive   
   land -- and in ways that help stabilize the climate,   
   promote economic development, and reduce poverty."
