Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller said in an email to the Chronicle. WeWork has received push back on its new no meat policy from a number of groups, most recently Texans. The Texas Restaurant Association (TRA), which represents more than 100 restaurants in the state, said it was “disappointed” by the decision to ban meat-free options at some locations. Wortham, citing an Environmental Protection Agency report, said that beef was responsible for 2% of US greenhouse gas emissions, while transportation and electricity each generated 28% of the country’s greenhouse gas and suggested WeWork might be better off encouraging employees to use less energy at the office or use public transport.
