who said it's the same? But weight is not a useful metric in that instance, since you are measuring the amount of food you need to consume in order to survive in calories and not in kilograms or lbs or whatever.

no you dont. you can survive with 700 calories of chicken just fine, as long as you feel satiated and full, which u do btw, 700calories of chicken get u super full. thats why i have been saying calories are not a good way to measure food energy requirements and we use weight as a general means to distribute food.

yes, there are values for many categories of emissions, your point being?

that fertilizers are the real cause not cow piss. i've been itirating this since forever. 

how are the fertilizer calculations skewed? The asterisk on page 25 is referring to different studies than the ones on page 24 where it shows that most grazing emissions are clearly due to urine. And that quote doesn't prove anything is skewed anyways, it says emission rates were below detection level and that could be for both fertilizer and urine emissions, but again, different study.

wdym "it doesnt" prove anything, skewing statistics to skew the end result is so so common, its used so much in biotech for PR purposes (which is why most drugs' actual potency isnt known until the clinical trials conducted by governing bodies). this is a thing not just in biotech but in all industries.

you can argue all you want but if studies don't back you up then you can't act like you are speaking facts and debunking governments like in OP. You are just a random with access to the internet at the end of the day.

so you're really gonna come here and give me a skewed report that says "beef consumption causes x amount of groundwater pollution, so we should switch to veganism"? seriously come on, there is no proper comparison with how veganism reduces pollution. no such study. that's why i said that line in the previous message in that tone.

and frankly speaking, the quality and nutrient richness of meat is just simply better.
