Red meat particularly beef is linked to climate change in
significant ways:
- Methane emissions - cows commonly raised for beef production
emit, Methane a potent Greenhouse gas, that contributes to global warming.
- Deforestation - creating grazing land for livestock often
involves cutting down forests.
- Carbon dioxide - certainly! beef production has a
significant impact on climate change due to Greenhouse gas emissions and land
change, use cows and other ruminant animals (like goats and Sheep) emit methane
during digestion. This process called "Entric fermentation" results
in Methane burps.
In 2010 , beef production contributed about 3 billion tones
of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions
annualy including both agricultural production and land-use cahrge.
