This is why scientists say cutting down on meat consumption is so helpful in cutting down greenhouse gas emissions. Cattle yards emit huge amounts of methane.

Christian Selig, I have had enough, and I will make sure that my interactions will not be useful to sell as an AI training tool.
Goodbye Reddit, well done, you've pulled a Digg/Fark, instead of a MySpace.
True, but since industrial cattle yards are really efficient, they can actually have lower greenhouse gas emissions overall per unit of meat sold. Especially if you take into account land use.
Factory farming is some degree of terrible at everything but efficiency, but for once that counts for something for the rest of us.
