What we knew all along....... https://lnkd.in/gJAEfrtF If you consider that New Zealand has approximately 3.7 million beef cattle which do exactly the same thing as Bison do. All of our beef cattle are not as big as Bison so by weight you could cut that number by say 40%. which is equivelent to 13,058 times the population of Bison. A Bison soaks up 11764 cars. So do the math, 3.7 million less 40% is around 2.2 million x 11764 cars each and you will see we soak up enough CO2 emitted by probably the entire Southern hemishere vehicles. Bottom line is you can't tax your way out of this so called climate change because it is a naturally occuring event which has it's ups and downs over hundreds of years.

Simple question, do you like food? I think for most of us, that's a yes but our food systems are facing even greater peril. Tomorrow, the House Farm Bill draft will be voted on and it gravely misses the mark on how to support the future of farming and all the food we love. The bill fails to prioritize equitable farmland access, divests from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and strikes climate provisions that assist farmers in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for extreme weather events. A small but meaningful step is to tell your representatives to vote NO on the Farm Bill draft https://lnkd.in/eVRGjyVv

Do you know what your foodprint is? 👣 🍔 What you put on the plate doesn't just affect the person eating it, it has impacts on our planet too. 🌎 Cows are the highest emitter of agricultural greenhouse gasses. In a single year one cow will belch 220 pounds of methane, a greenhouse gas that’s 28x more potent in warming the atmosphere than carbon dioxide. You can shrink your foodprint by swapping just one meat-based meal a week for a plant-based one. 🍎 📸: graphic by @bonappetitmag
