> A USDA certification program for producers who demonstrate a 10% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from their cattle below an industry baseline will earn them a certification that allows them to market their beef as low-carbon.
Shouldn't we instead focus on a diet that prevents humans from farting?
(Incidentally, I ate no calories from any plant-based source during all of 2021, and an interesting side effect that I noticed (other than spectacular overall health) was that I completely stopped farting. Others who have tried the all-meat diet have also commented on the fact that humans don't fart on an all-meat diet.)
What about 'em? I'll let you do your own research on the methane production from a human vs. a head of cattle. Here, I'll give you a head start: it ain't the farts, so start your search there.
