CO2 is the staff of life - the more the merrier. CO2 generators in greenhouses prove it.

Methane from Cattle... from their digestion is the greenhouse gas... humans... wildlife ... get rid of all warm blooded animals?

Vast herds of bison and other ungulates never burped or farted? Must be a recent evolutionary phenomenon!

There were 30 million bison 150 years ago and they slaughtered them down to very few....

Maybe they are going to do the same cull on cattle....

From the Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Beef:

You may have heard over the past few days about a report suggesting that reducing or eliminating beef is the best way to reduce our impact on climate change. Considering that #cdnbeef contributes only 0.04% to global #GHG, only 2.4% of Canada’s total emissions AND packs a nutritional punch ⬆️ in protein w/ 14 essential nutrients, you can feel very comfortable in making #beef part of your balanced diet. Also considering that over 50% of the food that is produced is wasted, reducing your contribution to food waste could be the single BEST thing we can ALL do.

DYK that much of the land that cattle graze in #Canada is marginal and not suitable for other agricultural production? Grazing this land With cattle enhances the soil by cycling nutrients and stores over 1.5 BILLION tonnes of carbon each year, preventing it from entering the atmosphere. Canada is a global leader in #sustainablebeef production and is committed to continually improving our footprint. The CRSB works together towards advancing #sustainability in #cdnbeef.

Beef producers here are possibly thinking another line of attack for beyond beef etc a possible ad campaign to encourage people not to eat fast food as much.

Could be counter productive though as the proper burgers have real beef.

The plant based burgers are not really here yet to same degree as northern hemisphere.

Just wondering are they same prices as a standard beef burger?

Alot of beef guys are worried about next gen meaning 10 15 yrs down the track how much beef will be consumed , will it pushed at schools etc not to eat beef etc.

Hopefully, within those 10-15 years, if will become apparent the lasting effects of a meatless diet on human physiology. I think there is enough of a control group now.

I guess the best thing we could all do is abandon Canada, return to the country of our ancestors, and the planet will be saved from that CO2 rounding error that we emit as Canadians.

I don't know how a country of 35 million people can actually believe they will make a difference to global anything when most of the country is still in its natural state.....

Why give Canadians a brain....might as well either brainwash everyone or lobotomize many....

This is getting stupid already...the UN isn't even up to date on western Canadian agricultural practices....and neither are most Canadians. ...

They sure made a difference it two world wars. Good job for the world that they didn't sit on their hands then and say they couldn't do anything (and with an even smaller population back then)
