Combat climate change by having one meat-free day per week then cut back further. A simple diet change is important in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and environmental problems associated with rearing cattle and other animals.
Deforestation in response to a growing population to allow more cattle herds is a factor that not too many media outlets seem to cover. Precious forests that absorb green house gases are being wipeout for a steak, a rack of ribs and a juicy burger. Coupled with an uneasy Dairy or beef cattle’s stomach, a small portion of methane is released when the moo cow passes gas.
Will the world’s meat consumption continue to melt polar caps at their current rate?
Chances are no, but when you factor in large amounts of forests being wipe out and the growing population rate this planet faces-every little bit can help. We need to reevaluate every aspect of our lives to bring about reductions in global warming.
Without action, the planet's rising temperatures could unleash potentially catastrophic change to earth's climate system, leading to hunger, drought, storms and massive species loss-which means bye bye Moo Cow.
