      Yeah the dairy industry is truly awful for the environment, far worse than all poultry industries. If we magically eliminated cows and pigs, the resulting meat eating of just fish and poultry wouldn’t really be a talking point in terms of CO2 emissions.

        I don’t know if this has been substantiated reliably

      Yes

      The single dish with the highest carbon footprint is not the meat — it’s the mac n cheese.
