Mostly vegan Mayor Eric Adams wants New Yorkers to say goodbye to beef and put the Big Apple on a plant-based diet to help save the world from global warming.

According to Adams, food sources represent 20% of New York City’s overall carbon emissions — the third largest source behind buildings and transportation .
