- czechdeveloper 8y agoThat is just for mammals, not all biomass.
- jlebrech 8y agoI think that's for the causes of CO2 emissions
- delinka 8y agoThat's wildly out of kilter - this data shows humans at only 2.3% of animal biomass, with arthropods holding the largest segment at 39%. EDIT: my sibling comment mentions CO2 emissions - I agree that your stats look like they're related to CO2 emissions.

- alejohausner 8y agoFrom figure 1 of the article: Humans: 0.06 Gt C Livestock: 0.1 Gt C Wild mammals: 0.007 Gt C So humans and livestock make up (0.06+0.1)/(0.06+0.1+0.007)=96% of MAMMALS. Relevant xkcd: xkcd.com/1338/
