I I think that people in richer countries eat more meat because they can afford to upkeep the livestock. In that sense they can afford another mouth to feed that they can also use to feed themselves whereas people with lower incomes are only able to support themselves and might only be able to grow food rather than support another mouth to feed. In my personal opinion, eating more meat negatively impacts human bodies especially in richer countries because of the amounts they are consuming. In regulated quantities meat is not inherently bad, but with the amount that most Americans consume it is highly health adverse. We also have too much meat production that is based around clear-cut areas, over grazing, and other poor farming practices that have negative Environmental impacts.
