You don't know if it will be the the same. My guess is they bought US beef cause it is cheap. If it is more expensive, people might be eating less. At least, that is what environemntal companies say; tax meat extra and people will eat less.

Unwillingly trump did great things for the climate, mustn't there be a lot of happy people here? 3 weeks ago it looked like the world would come to an end cause Trump didn't want to sign the Paris Agreement and therefor the earth will be 0.1 degrees warmer in 100 years. Now he does something great for the climate, but people are still not happy???!!!??
Yes if you increase the cost of meat GLOBALLY meat consumption in Japan might reduce.

However all this does is increase demand of imports of Beef from other sources.

Even Josh BB can see that, and he is really really stupid.
