As negotiations get underway at COP28, we compiled a list of the leading research documenting the connection between meat and greenhouse gas emissions.
>It seems obviously false to me when we factor in the land used for their food production
it **seems** obvious, but we feed them cottonseed, which is a byproduct of the textile industry. why should the land and water and emissions spent to make tee-shirts and jeans also be attributed to cattle? we feed them silage that is byproduct from other sectors of the ag industry. we feed them soy cake, a byproduct of soybean oil pressing.
these are conservations of resources. why should we say it costs those values rather than saves them?
