Eat less meat and dairy to fight climate change…

I’m gonna fix me a big steak and have a side of Swiss cheese to go with it.  Surest way to get me to do something is to tell me not to do it.

You and me both, Basti! 

Anytime some nitwit brags about being a vegetarian, I reply, "Great!  That means more meat for me!"

As I believe I have observed before, the greatest source of agricultural greenhouse gas is rice paddies, not cows.

And agricultural methane emissions are unsignificant compared to the amount released by rotting vegetation in all sorts of places, such as wetlands - and, of course, rain forests....
