This comprehensive report examines the dramatic variations in meat consumption worldwide, exploring not just overall quantities but the striking differences in preferred meat types across nations. Drawing on data from multiple sources, we analyze the cultural, economic, and social factors driving these preferences, track recent consumption trends, and consider future projections alongside sustainability implications.

Global fisheries stand at a critical juncture, with 37.7% of the world's assessed fish stocks now fished beyond biologically sustainable levels. This comprehensive analysis examines the trends, challenges, and potential solutions to address this mounting crisis. We track the steady erosion of global fish stock health since the 1970s, analyze regional disparities in management effectiveness, explore key drivers of overexploitation, highlight successful recovery models, and outline governance initiatives designed to rebuild depleted fisheries. By combining rigorous data analysis with case studies of effective interventions, this report offers a nuanced understanding of both the perils and promise in global fisheries management.
