    RICE UNIVERSITY By Drew Robert Winter A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE Doctor of Philosophy APPROVED, THESIS COMMITTEE Cymene Howe (Apr 15, 2020) Cymene Howe James Faubion James Faubion (Apr 15, 2020) James Faubion Cary Wolfe Cary Wolfe (Apr 16, 2020) Cary Wolfe HOUSTON, TEXAS April 2020 i Abstract Hyperanimals: framing livestock and climate change in Danish Imaginaries By Drew Robert Winter The IPCC and UN FAO have both suggested a global reduction in meat consumption to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But how do nations and citizens resolve tensions between ecological stewardship and meat consumption? What is implied in eating meat and raising livestock in a country where the historical imaginary yokes national values to the pig-producing countryside?

In 2016, a publicly-funded advisory council issued a report suggesting that parliament pass a beef tax to reduce consumption and reflect its environmental impact. The report was the most controversial the council had ever issued, with members receiving angry phone calls and politicians arguing the council should be disbanded.
