Walter's ecology blog

My theory is that ecology is one of the most important things to defend in the world today but it is only possible if it is made possible for human beings and not only for perfect people. That's why I start this blog. I would like to share what I do and hopefully get cool input from you on what you do for a better planet. That is what I call ecology for normal people. :)

Cow's generate green-house gases

Did you know that a cow's digestive system generates per year the same amount of green-house gas like a car running 20'000 km?

Wow, that's weird.

This means that eating less meat allows to reduce green-house effect and global warming.... in addition of health benefits I mean. :)

BTW, remember, to "build" a cow you need grass, to "build" grass you need space and so there is also a deforestation effect jumping in here.
