Changing our diets and ways of producing food is crucial to combat climate change and increase human health. A key change is lessening the impact of meat and animal products like eggs and dairy. 🧵

We would halve #methane emissions from North America if we cut cattle by half 🧵

A most efficient path would be to target #USA because the headcount is biggest and because each bovine emits most if bred the American way. Same as in Brazil: https://mas.to/@maugendre/113992940508282754

Greenhouse gas from livestock digestion in Equatorial Climates 🧵

Along the Equator, it mainly is sheep and bovines that account for methane emissions.
The biggest producers are Ethiopia and Sudan (South Sudan included).

@food @ecology 🧵

#Cattle husbandry emits #greenhouse gas.
For example:
* South America and the Indian subcontinent breed most bovines who emit most methane.
* China and the Middle East produce too much livestock methane in regard to their bovine headcounts.

Emissions of #methane from livestock digestion per world region:

Let's consider activities that force the Greenhouse Effect, thus @climate change. 🧵

#Livestock digestion emits too much #methane:
• People farm too many bovines in India, Pakistan, Brazil, United States, China;
• People farm too many goats in India, Pakistan, China, Nigeria;
• People farm too many pigs in China and the United States.

Some activities are forcing climate change

CH4 emissions from livestock digestion:
* Pakistan doubles emissions between 2005 and 2024.
* Pakistan and Brazil each emit 3,000 Gg/year more in 2023 than in 2005.

#Fao: "Aumento #fertilizzanti mette a rischio produzione cibo"
I prezzi medi dei fertilizzanti sono aumentati in modo significativo, sono quasi triplicati dalla metà del 2021, insieme all'aumento dei prezzi dell'energia.
