These 14 American Cities Have A ‘Target’ Of Banning Meat, Dairy, And Private Vehicles By 2030

The Federalist Header

Fourteen major American cities are part of a globalist climate organization known as the “C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group,” which has an “ambitious target” by the year 2030 of “0 kg [of] meat consumption,” “0 kg [of] dairy consumption,” “3 new clothing items per person per year,” “0 private vehicles” owned, and “1 short-haul return flight (less than 1500 km) every 3 years per person.” 

C40’s dystopian goals can be found in its “The Future of Urban Consumption in a 1.5°C World” report (PDF Below), which was published in 2019 and reportedly reemphasized in 2023. The organization is headed and largely funded by Democrat billionaire Michael Bloomberg. Nearly 100 cities across the world make up the organization, and its American members include Austin, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Seattle.

Media coverage of C40 Cities’ goals has been relatively sparse. The few media personalities and news outlets who have discussed it have been heavily attacked by the corporate “fact-checkers.” In a “fact check” aimed at conservative commentator Glenn Beck, AFP Fact Check claimed that the banning of meat and dairy and limits on air travel and clothing consumption were actually “not policy recommendations.” 

AFP quotes a paragraph from the original “The Future of Urban Consumption in a 1.5°C World” report, which reads, “This report does not advocate for the wholesale adoption of these more ambitious targets in C40 cities; rather, they are included to provide a set of reference points that cities, and other actors, can reflect on when considering different emission-reduction alternatives and long-term urban visions.”

But this paragraph,  likely included in the report as a liability in the case of pushback, seems to directly contradict the meaning of “target,” which in this context can be defined as a “desired goal.” The target of eliminating meat, dairy, and private vehicles by 2030 is “based on a future vision of resource-efficient production and extensive changes in consumer choices,” the report notes — something its authors clearly hope to bring about. If these were not their goals, they would not have labeled them “ambitious targets.” 

The “fact-checker’s” insistence that C40 Cities’ explicitly stated climate goals are somehow insincere is even more unconvincing, given that we are watching them start to unfold right now. This year, in lockstep with C40 Cities’ 2030 aims, New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced that the city will place caps on the amount of meat and dairy served by city institutions, such as schools and prisons. Meanwhile, the U.K. has banned the sale of new gas-powered vehicles after 2030, and France has banned short-haul flights “to cut carbon emissions.”

Instagram Slaps ‘False’ Label On The Federalist’s Accurate Reporting About Meat-Banning Goals

The Federalist was punished because globalist bureaucrats, politicians, and corporations do not want the masses to know about the Orwellian motives behind the climate agenda.

Instead of addressing the “vast pedophile network” allegedly thriving on Instagram, the platform is focussing its time on defaming and censoring The Federalist for exposing the globalist, Michael Bloomberg-run “C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group,” which has an “ambitious target” of limiting clothing consumption and banning meat, dairy, and private vehicle ownership by 2030.

On Tuesday, Instagram slapped a “false” label on a reel I made exposing the 14 American cities that are part of C40 and its disturbing goals, using a Politifact “fact-check” of a separate Instagram user and media site to purposely and deceptively discredit my factual reporting.

In the “fact-check” article attached to my Instagram post, Politifact links to a Valuetainment.com article and an Instagram post that both read, “Fourteen major American cities  signed onto a globalist climate agreement… that includes eliminating meat and dairy consumption, private vehicle ownership, air travel, and clothing purchases.” Politifact accuses Valuetainment.com and the Instagram user of “distort[ing]” the C40 report because C40 “does not say U.S. cities have signed onto these bans.”

Politifact purposely did not engage with my Instagram post or my article it was based on because I did not say the C40 cities “signed onto” any bans. Instead, I quoted C40 explicitly, stating that C40’s dystopian aims are “ambitious targets.”

Another reason Politifact avoided directly addressing my reporting is that I anticipated a fact-check and included in my article a rebuttal to previous fact-checks that made nearly identical claims. 

Quoting C40 representative Grace Chege, Politifact wrote, “The report is an analysis of consumption-based emissions in C40 cities, not a plan for cities to adopt, let alone a legally binding treaty.”

Preemptively responding to a very similar AFP Fact Check article from July, I wrote that the fact checkers’ false characterization of C40’s goals directly contradicts the meaning of an ambitious “target,” which in this context can be defined as a “desired goal.” The report states that eliminating meat, dairy, and private vehicles by 2030 is “based on a future vision of resource-efficient production and extensive changes in consumer choices,” meaning it is something the authors clearly hope to bring about. In other words, it is their goal.
