> Feeding cows seaweed cuts 99% of greenhouse gas emissions from their burps
What about feeding our species with plants instead of bovine meat and secretions?

Funny how easily pain can be ignored when you dont have to see the subjects suffering for you.
(In case its not clear, i think this thread is silly)
Personally I would prefer to see a major carbon tax on synthetic fertiliser and products that get produced from them (naturally this include corn feed meat). That way people would have an economic incentive to select the kind of food that has the lowest greenhouse gas emissions.
But I am not sold that one have to apply a carbon tax to everything at the same time. Eutrophication has turned a major portion of the baltic ocean into the dead sea and if left to continue we won't have anything left alive there for a very long time. On that environmental crisis alone synthetic fertiliser pollution need to be addressed. That it also is derived from fossil fuels and a major contributor to global warming is all more reasons to focus carbon taxes on synthetic fertiliser specifically.
