You think repairing literally millions of abandoned leaking natural gas wells is easier?

I don't really know but my gut feeling is that you can sit down with the 99.9% of those well owners at a single OPEC or IOGP meeting.
However, you would struggle to enforce any meat industry curbing measure with the millions of meat producers spread across many developing countries.

If you think it's easier to focus on developed countries, North America and Europe are responsible for 1/3 of the global meat production (~110 million tons/year). China is another 80 million tons.
On the consumption side, and leaving aside the micro-nation of Hong Kong, the US lead the per capita meat consumption charts with 124 kg/year, with other high-wealth countries close behind. (China: 61 kg/year.)
The developing countries don't have to be a particular priority, at this point.

They don’t have owners, they are abandoned.

TIL. But even after insolvency there must be a way to enforce personal liability on whoever was in charge of the company that drilled the well in the first place.
