can I make this thread even more boring?
400 pages of research on the environmental impacts of livestock http://www.virtualcentre.org/en/…
"Using a methodology that considers the entire commodity chain, it estimates that livestock are responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, a bigger share than that of transport. However, the report says, the livestock sector's potential contribution to solving environmental problems is equally large, and major improvements could be achieved at reasonable cost."
and 169 pages on meat and dairy in the UK
http://www.fcrn.org.uk/frcnResea…"While clearly the impacts are significant, we need also to consider the fact that if we did not eat meat or drink milk we would have to expend energy and emit greenhouse gases to produce substitute foods."
