Methane emissions are driving climate change. Here’s how to reduce them.

This primer explores the causes of methane emissions and how the world can limit the release of this potent greenhouse gas.

The article ignores a very important change, shifting diets away from meat and dairy. In fact, it will be impossible to reach zero GHG emissions without that change. Doing so, on the other hand, will make the world a much better place.

Another problem that will be greatly mitigated when we choose to leave animals off of our plates.

This part is surprising. We have displaced much of the planets wildlife with our appetite for cheeseburgers with dire consequences for biodiversity and climate.

There are specially formulated vegan foods for the most common of captive obligate carnivores (felis silvestris catus). Since that is possible, it seems strange that we cannot discover a way to do the same for the tiny percentage of humans that are thought to require meat for health reasons.
