Yes it's an error. The ABC article is misquoting the FAO, which says that all emissions associated with livestock make up 14.5% of human GHG emissions.[0] This includes not only enteric methane (39% of that), but also emissions and deforestation to grow feed (45%), manure storage (10%), and meat processing and transport (6%). Reducing global emissions by ~6% is still a huge dent, of course. [0] https://www.fao.org/news/story/en/item/197623/icode/ https://www.fao.org/news/story/en/item/197623/icode/
