While pork and poultry are not great for the environment either, they have nothing on the methane emissions of ruminating animals like cows.

this is just poore-nemecek, and it is bad science.

Do you have something to contradict it?

Edit: well I can’t find anything refuting this poore-nemecek they referenced besides a correction issued to the paper itself so guess I’ll just link it here in case anyone else is interested like I was.

the paper compiles LCAs from disparate sources. but LCAs are not transferable between studies. the entire basis of the analysis is bad science.
