British Livestock Not Contributing To Global Warming
November 02 2009
Charles Clover responded to Lord Stern’s remarks last week about a vegetarian diet being better for the planet. He said: “What Stern appears not to have grasped is that different forms of livestock agriculture produce greenhouse gases in different measure and some do not produce them at all. Some 60% of British farmland is suitable only for growing grass. Since Neolithic times we have used livestock to turn inedible grass into food. And as a system there isn’t an awful lot wrong with it"
Mr Clover went on to say that "Graham Harvey’s book, The Carbon Fields, tells us that grazing permanent pasture with ruminants can actually be an overall carbon-sink because of the vast root structures below ground which take up carbon efficiently every time they are grazed hard.”
