The fields of cows that we saw in our youth are not the way that a lot of cattle are kept everywhere nowadays. They belch methane. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07tmn1h https://www.euractiv.com/section/agriculture-food/news/the-belching-cow-phenomenon-and-why-its-a-problem/ The lagoons of manure often overflow into waterways poisoning them as well as giving off gases. This is a good reason to try and reduce the amount of meat and dairy we eat and increase the amount of vegetables. This is apart from the question of animal welfare. |
