Guest guest Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 " According to a new report published by the United Nations Food and Agriculture organization, the livestock sector generates more greenhouse gas emissions as measured in CO2 equivalent -- 18 percent -- than transport. Says Henning Steinfeld, Chief of FAO’s Livestock Information & Policy Branch and senior author of the report: “Livestock are one of the most significant contributors to today’s most serious environmental problems. Urgent action is required to remedy the situation.” See more information on the link between animal agriculture and global warming and the Bite Global Warming Day details on August 18th at the biteglobalwarming link below. http://www.biteglobalwarming.org/ Thanks, Mary _______________ Local listings, incredible imagery, and driving directions - all in one place! http://maps.live.com/?wip=69 & FORM=MGAC01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
