I share their congratulations to Al Gore for a well-deserved Nobel Prize for his wake up call on global warming. Having said that, IS ANYBODY PAYING ATTENTION TO THE U.N. sponsored report on THE ROLE OF LIVESTOCK ON THE GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT? Factory farming generates 18 percent of greenhouse gas of which 37 percent derive from methane which in turn HAS 23 TIMES THE GLOBAL WARMING IMPACT OF CO2. Add to it one billion tons of toxic waste plus 64 percent of ammonia emissions produced by animals housed in inhumane confinement.
