Regarding pork, you're right, and I knew that. Just the way I've been raised and at this point, it's become more of a personal choice. Plus, makes it easier to hang out with my Jewish and Muslim friends. :-P Also, I've thought about that for lamb, since it's such a small animal compared to pigs and cows. It's partly why it's so expensive. However, I bet a lot of that impact is because very few lambs are raised in the US, and most is imported from New Zealand and Australia. Since I'm in Ontario, Canada, that's less of an issue for me since most of my lamb is raised locally. In fact, my fiancee's brother-in-law is Greek, and during Orthodox Easter, they go up to a farm, pick a lamb, have it slaughtered, and bring it back to roast on a rotisserie. (If you can ever do this in your life, do it!) So the carbon footprint is probably as low as it's going to be here in Ontario.
