It’s not news that #beef production has an outsized environmental impact, but I appreciate this comparison to #coal:
"Relative to other food sources, beef is uniquely carbon-intensive. [cattle] produce seven times as many GHGs per calorie of meat as pigs do, and around 40% more than farmed prawns do. This makes beef a bigger outlier among foods than coal is among sources of electricity: burning coal generates just 14% more GHGs than burning oil, another common fuel.”
Treating beef like coal would make a big dent in greenhouse-gas emissions
