That's an uncharacteristically shrill response from you there Mr @PeanutsMolloy, especially given I've always understood your professional expertise to be in financial markets.PeanutsMolloy said:Garrymanilow said:
Humans produce about 1L of flatus a day, 7% of which is methane. Cows produce 250-500L per day. There's about 1.5 billion cows, meaning 120 million metric tonnes per year of methane emitted by cows. For humans it's more like 0.5 million metric tonnes per year. Methane's contribution to climate change is about 80 times more powerful than CO2, though the atmosphere breaks methane down into CO2 eventually anyway so still bad. There's also the fact that far less CO2 is being absorbed by forests because this ridiculous number of cows require somewhere to be and that involves massive deforestation.

Ha ha you couldn’t make this shit up.why are we all not having to take this drug to save the planet. We all fart don’t we.
Staggering amount of twaddle on this thread from the self-proclaimed "critical thinkers".
A simple fact:
Methane from cows breaks down into natural CO2 and water after 10-12 years. It is part of the natural carbon cycle. Grass absorbs the CO2 by photosynthesis and the cycle repeatedly continues.
Cows are, and always have been, environmentally sustainable.
I've been reluctant to accept this issue as a problem myself, but if I'm honest its simply because I'm British, from the big city, and brought up to believe that cows grazing contentedly in meadows in a green and pleasant land is a wonderful thing.
Recently I started using two AI models, Claude.ai and Perplexity.ai. I just asked them both the same question:
"How clear is the evidence that methane from cows is a significant concern in respect of climate change?"
Anyone can do that, and read the full answers but the two I have are pretty similar. Both speak of robust evidence, but with mitigation, including differences according to farmering process.
Here is part of Claude's answer:According to scientific assessments, cattle and other ruminant livestock account for roughly 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions from human activities. Of this, about 40% comes from enteric fermentation. Methane is particularly concerning because while it stays in the atmosphere for a shorter time than CO2 (about 12 years versus centuries), it is approximately 28-34 times more potent as a greenhouse gas over a 100-year period.
However, there are some nuances worth considering:
First, methane from cattle is part of a biogenic carbon cycle - the carbon they emit originally came from plants they ate, which absorbed it from the atmosphere. This is different from fossil methane, though the warming effect is the same.
Second, the impact varies significantly based on farming practices. Intensive factory farming tends to concentrate emissions, while well-managed grazing can potentially help sequester carbon in soil.
Third, emission levels vary considerably by region and production system. For example, dairy cows in developed countries often produce more methane per animal but are also more efficient in terms of emissions per unit of food produced.
In short, as usual with science it's not black and white. However, the concerns are certainly not "twaddle", unlike the methane emitted from the cast of appalling characters leaping on Arla, starting with Farage and Tice.

It can be argued that ‘nature’ has allowed humankind language and the ability to think in complex ways, including the ability to think morally.
If I am right, then veganism and vegetarianism is a product of the natural world.2 -
CO2 is a greenhouse gas, it remains in the atmosphere and traps heat warming the earth. I always remember from my O & A level geography lessons being taught that this actually makes the earth habitable as it would otherwise be too cold for life.PeanutsMolloy said:Garrymanilow said:

The problem we have now is that due to the burning of fossil fuels and the huge growth in animal agriculture, all due to the actions of man, we now have have too much CO2 in the atmosphere, which is accelerating climate change beyond out ability to cope with it. We now have far more extreme weather causing a threat to life.6 -

If so, and I believe it is and has been proven to be, then us reducing the demand for it isn't dumb.1 -
According to the below it takes a sixth of an acre of land to feed a vegan compared to three and a quarter acres for a meat eater.https://www.downtoearth.org/articles/2009-03/77/vegetarian-solution-part-3#:~:text=To%20feed%20a%20vegan%2C%20it,1%2F4%20acres%20of%20land.

I try not to be a ‘preachy’ vegan as that’s pretty pointless. It’s like my Mum was with ‘Non Smoking Day’ as she’d smoke 2 at the same time whilst sticking 2 fingers up at it.I’ve been a veggie for most of my life since my first job was in a laboratory analysing meat for antibiotics, growth promoters and other unhealthy chemicals. It put me off for life.However, a vegetarian diet can be really unhealthy- at least mine was. Cheese on everything, dairy products etc. I also felt I couldn’t use the moral argument about animal suffering and eat dairy. So 10 years ago I went vegan. You can be unhealthy as a vegan. There are so many ‘normal’ foods that are ‘accidentally vegan’. Co-op custard doughnuts for one. But that aside I shifted 2 stone without any particular effort. Bloody pressure lowered. I’d recommend it, but avoid the meat ‘replacements’. Just full of crap.14

Pretty sure cow methane is worse for the environment than flights. It's not the cows on the fields but the battery farming which is where must of us get our beef and milk from.
I think vegans have a great argument and in the future (100 years or so, hopefully sometime after i've gone) they'll out number us so be grateful to be a live in a time where you can have an all you can eat Brazilian barbeque for £20 and vegans are the weird ones!
Tried vegan for 6 months and just seemed to be replacing unprocessed healthy foods with processed food and consuming far too many legumes and pulses etc.
Works for many but not for all and not how nature intends.
Definitely strong argument for higher plant focused diets though.1 -

I received an email from Milk & More who delivery our milk, stating the dairy farms who supply them do not use this additive., our milk is delivered in glass pint reusable bottles, thus not adding to the plastic container mountain.4

Beef is by far the worst for the environment, the methane and the farmland over forest etc, so even just a lot of people cutting down/avoiding beef and sticking to chicken, pork, fish etc would be good.RodneyCharltonTrotta said:

Dont disagree that ultra processed food is horrendous for us, we need better education on this and encouraging a movement towards whole foods.

To be honest, a reasonably large amount of land that is used for grazing isn't really suitable for growing crops, or is only suitable for growing very limited types (which then has an impact on the soil) and can lead to greater reliance on chemicals if crop rotation is not feasible. Silage as a fodder crop for livestock is relatively easy to grow and can be harvested in even quite cool and damp conditions (admittedly the quality is diminished and the fields are left in worse condition due to the weight of harvesting machinery, but it can still be a valuable feed).seth plum said:

Also, unless you have very high and stringently observed environmental standards, arable cropland, like coniferous forestry, can lead to the creation of green deserts.
The use of chemicals is also, generally, an issue in arable farming.
More organic practices would be lovely, but in the absence of a dramatic change of national culture would have a direct impact on all our wallets, or would lead to imports undercutting domestic production and would lead to farm closures.3 -
