Is There Enough Meat for Everyone?
- sunstone 11y agoJust sticking to chicken for every day meat is better for both you and the environment. Eat other meats when you get a craving. Suddenly the environment looks a lot better.
- jsilence 11y agoOr even to fish that was raised in good aquaculture. Fed input to output ratio is approx 1:1 where poultry has 2:1.
- ZeroGravitas 11y agoThe bit about "green water" is fairly epic in scale. I'm guessing that taking that into account probably makes growing stuff in regions with sufficient rain radically better for the planet. Wonder what the numbers are for California?
- ArkyBeagle 11y agoDunno for California, but I once had a co-worker that grew beef (as a hobby type thing ) in the Red River valley of Texas and he could pump water but it blew his cost curve. It was only feasible if he used what they call "green water" in the article.
