"The regenerative ranching phenomenon is not just exaggerated. It’s fabricated, woven from a carbon-credit scheme for big oil, and is a marketing gold mine for big agriculture."​

"The evidence is clear that the carbon-negative cow is a fable and the ranching industry is a major contributor to global climate change."​

I've been interested in the farming/ranching techniques that is sometimes called slow food.

Going vegan is still the best alternative but short of that Slow Food seems like the best alternative. but do you think its all a lie?

The “eat less meat” movement is growing. Does it distort science? (Part 2 of 3) - Slow Food International

If everyone in America skipped meat once a week, it would reduce total GHG emissions by only .5 percent. Even if it’s a worthy notion on social justice principles, it’s not the single solution to the climate crisis.
