Key elements, such as a potential 30% reduction in agricultural pollution, suggestions for citizens to consume less meat, and ending fossil fuel subsidies, were removed from the plan. Farmers’ protests across Europe prompted this revision, with Germany witnessing significant demonstrations due to diesel subsidy cuts.
