Tonight I watched a BBC news item on climate issues, The trigger was a recent UN study that shows CO2 levels rose last year for the first time following a period of steady decline. Then the vegan call to arms kicked in. The report continued by going on about methane being produced by animals, and stating in conclusion that we will only overcome global warming by stopping meat production.
Wow! What a Crock!
Maybe the extra volcanic activity seen last year could be the source of CO2 that far exceeds agriculture sources. Maybe China building many coal fired power station s not just for domestic use, but also as a major exporter of that technology to the 3rd world where they are building power stations at the rate of knots at heavily subsidised contract rates. Maybe the deforestation fires burning in Indonesia and Malaya and The Amazon basin contribute too in the search for ground nut oil and palm oil, Or am I being cynical in that these have nothing to do with meat, but animals are somewhat connected and do indeed burp.
I thought the SKY news report on the same topic was better, still banging on about animals, but pointing out that there are feed supplements that could be added to their feeds to considerably reduce the wind problem, thus cutting methane emissions at a burp. However the Min of Ag and Fish bans these supplements so no deal,
