It is possibly worth noting that reducing your meat consumption is not a binary switch, and you can pretty easily contribute like 50% of the expected value for like 5% of the effort.
I used to try to have "vegetarian days" where I would not eat any meat that day, and that was kind of doable for a while. I usually had like at least one and sometimes two of them per week, and the idea was that I would get used to them and start to have them more and more often (but still at least sometimes eat meat, because it would suck if there was a war or other disaster and my digestive system had gotten used to a completely meat-free diet, which may or may not be available in that scenario). However, especially in the long run, it was substantially harder to come up with different foods I could eat on a low budget and low willingness to cook if I had to exclude meat completely, and that was eventually draining my energy more than the positive feeling from having successfully done something productive was benefiting me, and it ended up becoming never two but sometimes one per week, and then eventually never.
What I have been doing more recently instead is that I will still eat all the same foods, I will just put less of the meat and more of the other things on my plate. This takes no effort whatsoever and I am pretty sure I have reduced my meat consumption by at least a third, possibly more, and would be relatively easy to combine with occasionally eating vegetarian foods to get even more reduction.
