中央社新聞》研究：全球改吃素每年可救800萬命

牛津大學馬丁學院研究人員發現，全球改採不吃蛋奶類飲食的純素食的飲食習慣，到了2050年每年可挽救800萬條人命、讓溫室氣體排放量降低2/3並節省1.5兆美元保健費用與氣候災損賠償金。

路透社報導，研究人員指出，這篇發表於美國學術期刊「國家科學院學報」（Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences）的研究報告，率先評估全球改採蔬食飲食對健康與氣候變遷造成的影響。

「我們所吃的食物大大影響個人健康與全球環境。」牛津馬丁未來食物計畫（Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Food）成員斯普林曼（Marco Springmann）說，飲食失衡對全球造成更多健康負擔，且我們的食物系統排放超過1/4的溫室氣體。

牛津大學研究人員模擬21世紀中期之前4種飲食產生的影響，分別為「一般」情境、遵從全球指導方針攝取最少蔬果並限制紅肉、糖類與總卡路里量的情境，以及素食飲食與純素飲食。

採取依循全球指導方針的飲食習慣，到2050年每年可讓510萬人免於一死；採用不吃蛋奶類等動物產品的純素飲食習慣，每年可避免810萬人死亡。

對於氣候變遷而言，遵循飲食建議可讓食物相關氣體排放量減少29%；採用素食飲食習慣可降低63%排放量、採取純素飲食習慣可降低70%。

研究報告說，改變飲食內容每年可省下7000億到1兆美元的保健成本、無酬病假與失去的工作天。而降低溫室氣體排放量，則可產生高達5700億美元的經濟效益。
