How Is The Meat In Your Burger Causing Global Warming?

As you’re biting into that nice, juicy king-size burger, have you ever thought how much you’re contributing to global warming?

I hadn’t. Cattle, though, are a major problem for the environment. As cows are busy munching away in their pastures, their multiple stomachs are producing methane.

Methane is a particularly potent greenhouse gas, 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide for global warming. According to The Journal of Animal Science, livestock produce between 250 and 500 litres of methane every single day! At the top end of the estimate, that enough to fill 250 large bottles of Coke.

Is Prince Charles Bad For Global Warming?

Global Warming And Prince Charles

‘We should be treating the whole issue of climate change with a far greater degree of priority’
- Prince Charles, 27 October 2005

Pity then that Prince Charles doesn’t heed his own advice and look at his own carbon footprint and its effect on global warming..

In April 2009, the heir to the British throne took a five day trip around Europe to promote the UK Government’s global warming policies. Unfortunately, he chartered a private Airbus A319 to transport him and his entourage between Rome, Venice and Berlin.
