Cows , not cars, top threat to environment, says UN report

Cows have emerged as the world's top destroyer of the environment.

A United Nations report has identified the world's rapidly growing herds of cattle as the greatest threat to the climate, forests and wildlife.

And they are blamed for a host of other environmental crimes, from acid rain to the introduction of alien species, from producing deserts to creating dead zones in the oceans, from poisoning rivers and drinking water to destroying coral reefs.

I've always thought if you could stop cows burping/farting then you've got it made!

Although taxing cars/bikes/planes etc is the easy option - wonder which they'll go for??

I wonder if less bulp or fart will make a difference in how their meat taste?
