You appear to be moving the goalposts (by changing the discussion about "meat" to "meat produced in the U.K.").

What's wrong with meat? An important food and absolutely delicious. This stuff about methane from farts and burps should be factored in not eliminated.

Who mentioned the UK, I was replying to a post about China and India and yet it's me that spouts cobblers :rolleyes:

He didnt move them, the people commenting about forests did.

On the basis that:

1. Vegetarian animals fart methane;
2. Methane is a climate change factor;
3. Many of the climate change mob are also crusaders against eating meat:

Then:

If we all switched to vegetables, would we fart methane? Especially if we eat raw vegetables?

If it wasn't Christmas with all its intentions of goodwill to all, I'd be moaning about the stench of methane this post is giving of

The farting scare is just that. Surely, this is blindingly obvious.

The animals we farm now were here a long time before we were.

I think you missed the subtlety of my point, OB! I obviously agree with you.

Largely they weren't (they have been deliberately bred for their meat and milk production by humans), and certainly not in the numbers that now exist on farms.

When did you last see a wild cow or chicken?

Millions of buffalo, wildebeeste, etc roam Africa and America.

My Niece was a vegetarian, and my god her farts were awful, even a dog would leave the room.

As I've indicated, the acid test is to light a fart.
