The Harvard response undercuts itself by bringing up "environmental sustainability"

It isn't wrong, but it seriously calls into question whether the aim of the recommendation against red meat purely accurate nutrition science or a broader agenda.

That was my first thought too. Unless they’ve done research on the future health impacts of climate change, including it weakens their argument.

I think this is an important distinction. If something should be unhealthy for consumption then it has to be because of ingesting it and not because of how it will impact the market or environment.
