American ranchers and U.S. meat consumption have virtually no impact on greenhouse gas emissions or climate, reports a compelling new climate summary.
The new climate summary, “Climate at a Glance: Livestock and Methane,” documents that cattle and beef account for just 2% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.
All livestock combined account for less than 4% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.
Climate activists, many of whom are vegans for other reasons, often claim that ranchers, livestock, and meat production are a leading cause of rising greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.
Yet, EPA data show crop production accounts for more greenhouse gas emissions than total livestock production.
The Climate at a Glance portal provides more than two dozen concise, compelling summaries of topics related to climate change.
Bullet-points at the top of each summary provide an easily understandable summary of the topic.
A Short Summary section under the bullet-points provides a concise, supporting explanation with links to scientific evidence.
Most summaries also include a compelling visual graphic.
The fact that Livestock have been on earth for thousands of years but now according to some screwballs their causing Global Warming/Climate Change just proves these people are total liberal idiots
Yet another inconvenient truth that will never see the light of day in the propaganda media.
