Impact of 15 year phaseout of animal agriculture on atmospheric greenhouse gas levels.

(A) Projected annual emissions of CO₂, CH₄ and N₂O for Business as Usual (red) and PHASEPOD (green) assuming a 15 year transition to new diet and 30 year carbon recovery. (B) Projected atmospheric concentrations of CO₂, CH₄ and N₂O under each emission scenario.
