Subsidizing beef is likely worse than subsidizing meat in general (even though I’m generally not a fan). The climate damage caused by beef and the dairy industry is simply too high.
My sources are from non-English speaking biology YouTubers, but I will try to look up the papers they referenced.
In short, mussels filter water and release nutrients in a vast area around where they naturally grow or are cultivated and therefore around them increased biodiversity and biomass can observed.

Even if in the EU we don’t have the VAST intensive cattle farming that is common in the US, I am still completely with you.
I want more mussels subsidized! Those little bastards are a net positive on the environment. That and insects and research in synthetic meat.
Remember to always vet and vote for candidates in the EU elections, it really does make a difference.
I’d like to know more about mussels

Literally a net positive.
