A number of countries have had decent reductions in their meat consumption over the last decade. It's not an impossible fight

In 2011, Germans ate 138 pounds of meat each year. Today, it’s 121 pounds — a 12.3 percent decline. And much of that decline took place in the last few years, a time period when grocery sales of plant-based food nearly doubled.

I have no statistics but as a vegetarian over the last few years the availability of plant based foods and the variety have skyrocketed, which suggests to me that more people are buying them.
