So how is it our bodies are dependent on several specific products of eating meat? B12? DHA? Sure, we can kid ourselves all we want with B12 shots, DHA pills, and other supplements but simply eating natural meat full of these building blocks would make more sense.
The purpose of this thread is to talk about methane emissions and their impact to the globe. When you look at the massive amounts of natural sources of methane, and the addition of man-caused methane emissions, "factory farming" of livestock is a tiny piece of the picture. Why aren't we protesting landfills that don't capture methane? Natural gas wells that blast millions of cubic feet of methane per day, wasted?
Sure, feel free to say "I think eating meat is bad, because of souls and feelings and stuff" but to say "Let's attack global warming by focusing on raising livestock, because it produces soooo much methane!" is ludicrous.
I drive an electric car that's powered by wind, natural gas, and nuclear power. I'm doing my part. Who's up for some burgers and beer? I'm buying!
