I've lived most of my life in rural Hawaii. At one point Hawaii island had the second largest cattle ranch in the USA so the cattle industry is huge here. We have cowboys, rodeos, and some of the stop signs used to say 'whoa'. Cow life on pasture land striipped of native flora appears to be idyllic, however every so often the babies are rounded up and they and the mama's cry all night long. It's so incredibly mournful and desperate. Then the calves are loaded onto barges and spend weeks being shipped to the mainland. I can't imagine the conditions. From there they go to feed lots until slaughter. We just had a nearby dairy close. The constant infractions were awful. I drove by once on my way to a trailhead. The conditions looked cruel standing around in their own feces. It would probably still be going strong if not for one of our representatives who lived fairly nearby the operation constantly getting methane reek wafting through her home. I rescued two tiny calves once from a rancher who gave them to me because they were getting rid of some cows presumed to be barren and these little guys, Mocha and Latte, were going to be left to starve. They were in a sorry state. One had a deep maggot infested wound. They were dehydrated and could barely stand. The rancher suggested Gatorade and they perked right up. I also dealt with the wound. I knew nothing about raising cattle but bottle fed them and eventually when they were unruly teenagers I ran out of enough fenced space and gave them to a friend to use as mowers or moo-ers. So they had a wonderful life having calves of their own until they were eventually actually rustled! I can't imagine their fate. I also lived briefly in Arizona where the cattle 'graze' or actually starve pooping all over the parks and their waterways.Then these emaciated cows are rounded up and fattened up in feed lots. A horrendous life. Odd how cattle have created an entire culture around their demise.

@papparocket 5 жыл бұрын

I grew up in Arizona and backpacked all over the state. There was not a single acre of National Forest land that didn't have cattle on it. And you are exactly right, they are all skinny as hell. The ranchers will sink a well into the area right above a natural seep and pump out all the water for the cattle. This impacts all the wildlife that relies on those seeps. I worked at a summer camp in the mountains while I was in college. The camp is surrounded by National Forest land that had grazing leases on it. Inside the fence around the camp the grass was pretty lush even though the deer easily jumped the fence to eat this good grass while on the outside the ground was barren with hardly a single blade of grass or any other plant that cattle can eat. We were constantly dealing with these hungry cattle that would push down the barbed wire fence to get at the grass.

@@papparocket I live in Northeast iowa we have cattle farms all around me. I have seen cows get close to the fences but never knocked any over. This one couple where I live had well over two thousand maple trees. A few of us would get permission to go on the property tap the trees and make our own syrup. The couple decided to move to Florida. This vegan couple bought the property and cut down all the trees and had the hills flattened. In the end they turned once was beautiful forest into a animal sanctuary. They stand in the pasture in their own shit, they shit in the nearby trout stream. They charge admission to see these so called rescued animals. They hire ex convicts to work there and the guy who co owns it is a felon himself. Felons can't be together because they learn from their mistakes and they can plan crimes. I will rejoice when that shit hole goes out of business.

In my area we had a area it had 2,500 maple trees. A vegan couple bought the property first thing they did was they cut every single tree down. They started a animal sanctuary they needed the land so the so called rescued animals could graze. When the wind is right the stink comes right into town. The methane gases released from that place is terrible. They have more animals than most beef farmers in the area. I started a petition in town to get them shut down. Because it is a sickening smell and I do taxidermy work.

A type of farming called silvopasture is a type of agriculture that incorporates trees and animals. In terms of restoring the environment, it makes sense to incorporate animal grazing throughout the great plains because that’s what the ecosystem has been doing for 1,000’s of years before American manifest destiny. The larger issue throughout midwestern agriculture is crop monoculture which erodes the soil, decreases biodiversity and leads to nitrogen runoff and algal blooms from fertilizers

@karlwheatley1244 5 жыл бұрын

There's one on nutritionfacts.org Moderate drinking is worse for health than not drinking at all and the reason the confusion arose is because the researchers didn't separate our former drinkers who may have quit due to health problems from people who never drank. When you separate those out, not drinking is healthiest.

This is a video that all vegans need to watch a few time and understand. The few rounds I have had in the boxing ring with meat eaters on this topic have also involved land erosion, they claim free range cows are necessary for soil blah blah blah something. They also mention that cows can graze on non arable land. My memery goes blank there, lol. Great video :)

@chrislittle191 5 жыл бұрын

The counter argument to the non-arable grazing is that they are assuming that we will need the same amount of farmland to grow veggies as we do for meat, when in reality we will need 10 - 15 times less land. That non-arable land can return to wilderness

@@FrozonNinja See I am in the hunting,fishing,and trapping industry. Ten years ago I used to have a channel on KZfaq but I had to pull it. The vegan/animal rights community first just sent hate messages then they turned into threats of violence against my family, friends and myself. My teenage boys started a live bait farm and fishing tackle manufacturing business. They are just local and have small mail order for their lures. Once again our local vegan/animal rights community went online and they all gave them poor reviews so it would hurt their business. My oldest son is out of school so he has no problems but my youngest son is still in school. His science teacher and principal belong to the vegan/animal rights community in our area. At least twice a week she talks about how his business is destroying the environment right in front of the class and she calls him a racist and the other students who are children of those in animal agriculture. He has even been suspended from school a couple of times for speaking his mind to her. But at least they are doing something with their lives at a young age. That science teacher's kids all they do is go to protests around the country.

Methane breaks down in the atmosphere after about 10 years, so although it's being produced in vast amounts, it doesn't accumulate and hang around forever. I'm not saying it's not a problem, just that it's not a total mind-boggling nightmare. If we stopped raising so many cattle, we could reduce methane in the atmosphere before too long.

@BodhiSoftMobileApps 5 жыл бұрын

Obviously there's no net reduction if new emissions completely replace previous emissions as they break down. But the short persistence relative to CO2 is all the more reason to actively influence everyone you can to reduce or eliminate beef from their diet. Anyone can simply delete their economic demand for beef *overnight*. No need to wait for politics, regulations, e-car infrastructure, etc. as with CO2 emissions from transportation fuel. Even if they can't quit meat, they can quit beef, and the industry will simply have to adapt. Industry obstructionist efforts would be futile in the face of all consumers just saying "nope, we're done with you."

Comparing pasture to cropland is crap, as cattle can graze on poor pasturage where not much would grow. As for the green argument, pasture-raised cattle increase soil fertility and help green the earth. Oh, and we're heading towards an ice age, not a warm spell but, for what it's worth, CO2 also helps plants grow.
