Meat and Global Warming

The statistic that 18% of greenhouse gas emissions come from meat production is to be revisited by the UN. If it is correct, meat production contributes more than transport to the emissions of greenhouse gases. This 'fact' has been latched onto by the vegetarian lobby who want to make us give up meat and save the planet at the same time! Even the author of the original report believes that the methodology used wasn't as correct as it could have been! Oh well, I'm off for a burger now!!
