  • No I want more information. I don’t want the current consensus of “healthy” between the authors, which may use arbitrary benchmarks, to prune down options that still satisfy a goal of sustainability.

    The research team’s calculations take into account a number of environmental factors such as CO2 emissions, the consumption of water and land use, as well as the health impact of a particular diet. In total, they have examined more than 100,000 variations of 11 types of diets and calculated their respective environmental and health effects.

    One of these things is not like the others and it looks like it is used to prune the set of variations. Is unhealthy like I get scurvy and die? Or is it that it may correlate with high cholesterol? Or is it that you are at risk of foodborne illness for eating under cooked meat/eggs/seafood? “Healthy” could encompass any of those and that’s nuts for data management.
