Global warming???

[Hourglass]

I always say the same thing to anyone who believes in global warming:
Go spent a winter in Minnesota. Then come back and tell us how that whole Greenhouse Effect is working for ya.

If you kill an animal before it can procreate, you will start lowering its overall population. If methane coming from a cow's ass is a problem, kill the cows.

The most cattle are domestic cattle. They are not wild animals and are breaded for meat and milk. They are produced on demand. They are not allowed to procreate their self. This over breaded cattle have not the best changes against food competitors and predators (as long as they live anymore near them).
As long someone pays for cows, they will "produce" cows.

No, too much and too less is not good for us. Nature has created a balance in witch we developed, and we don't care about this balance, changing it and could harm ourselves.

Hey Jenae and Tread, do you think it is worth our time to continue to try to get through to these no boys?
I think its time to go back to dreaming about cute trannys.

I'm just trying to get the point across that the whole cattle contributor of methane in the atmosphere is more of just a ploy to get people to stop eating beef than it is to actually do anything of any worth to the environment.

Personally I'm not for a vegetarian diet (maybe you can remember our early posts in another thread), but there is more behind this that is worth for the environment.
Beef and milk products are not very effective as nutrient supply. A lot of space must be used to get enough food for the huge amounts of cattle. In many countries they use also artificial fertilizer to get better grows and fight at the same time some other herbs and trees to get only cattle food.
Fertilizer is responsible for 1/3 of N2O worldwide.
A natural grassland bind more greenhouse gases than a full deplete agriculturally use.
And the immense water use, it sounds unbelievable, but it's true. 1kg (2.205 pound) beef needs 15000l (3958.5 gallons) water and 1000l water for 1l milk.

Humans don't need much meat, and herbal food would usually be more effective (as long they don't farm water hungry fruits in deserts as some do).
