The problem is that's only amortizing on side of the equation. If you were to pick up that leg of lamb and a dozen other things on the way home from work then the additional CO2 cost from the lamb itself is negligible.
It's like saying cars produce less emissions than bikes by including the manufacturing costs of the bike but not the car.
