Bruno Le Maire inaugurated the largest French factory of "vegetable meat" in the Loiret last week. "100 g of vegetable proteins generate 60 to 90% less greenhouse gases than 100 g of animal protein," he said.

"Has the former Minister of Agriculture become the new gravedigger of the French meat industry?" asked the French Confederation of Butchery-Charcuterrers (CFBCT) "Why so much relentlessness?", asked the deputy mayor of Ain, Xavier Breton.
