the global warming secret no one wants you to hear

Agricultural damage is an issue in most parts of the world. Have you heard this before? Probably not, and that is because nobody in the Government or on the news is telling us anything about it and this is the main cause of damage to our world. Environmental damage is getting caused by the amount of land they take up, the amount of grass they are eating and – oddly enough - cow sweat, farts and poo are huge problem for the environment. Sound strange/unbelievable? Yes, we thought so too but actually, cow’s excrement gives off methane which is a very damaging chemical. Every minute, 3.2million kg of cow excrement (poo) is produced by cows just in America! Also, waste from a farm of 2,500 cows is equal to the waste produced by a city of 411,000 people. Imagine how much methane that gives off!

We are always told that Fossil Fuels are the worst for the environment – but is this actually the case? According to the documentary ‘Cowspiracy’ it is not … Fossil Fuels are responsible for 13% of the damage to our environment but animal agriculture is responsible for 51%!So the main cause of environmental damage is caused by agriculture and we need to do something about it soon!
