As negotiations get underway at COP28, we compiled a list of the leading research documenting the connection between meat and greenhouse gas emissions.
Remember you can’t grow crops on the land we run most cattle on, it’s marginal or steep.
If we remove cows from the marginal land, and sheep from the steep land deer and goats move in
Deer and goats are ruminants like sheep and cows. They will have the same emissions
Presumably we won’t be farming the land, it’ll be national parks or similar
So with cows and sheep we have a chance of improving their emissions, because we can inoculate them with specific methane eating bacteria, we can feed them supplements that let the existing bacteria crack methane.
^ likely said while sitting on disposable furniture made it China.
Meat is a problem, but there are a lot of contributing factors. Shaming people doesn’t help them hear you.
meat is a problem.
Ok. Solve it without making the problem worse.

With wild animals it’s hard to do anything.
stop feeding crops to animals for low calorific returns.
stop deforesting the rainforest for soy products to feed cattle.
reduce the demand for meat and reduce the production thus reduce the methane.
or just pretend that you can’t do anything about the problem.
if you can’t even change what you eat for breakfast what hope do we have in changing society and avoiding a potential catastrophy?
Non-argument it makes sense to be conscientious of the elusive"disposable Chinese furniture" as well as what you eat if you care about the environment
