but still very much alive. your guy to the special sauce in germany recognizes where exactly it was fun. learn a lot of our culture history. all their travel extremely worth a visit. the there's something about birthday is it, this is maybe the crack of just looking at one almost feels safe. if only forgetting about their impact was as easy as the lights, but producing food and it's nearly a 3rd of all greenhouse gases and all food. these parties are the worst offenders. so i'm going to do things differently. we're going to be talking about rotational grazing, rotational grazing, notational, raising the rotation only grows and then produce b. so it's actually good to be in by even carbon neutral because these same cows

can also improve the soil and helps walk c o 2 in the ground. other state has completely pushed either way deep as a massive problem and to slow climate change, we have to fix that is the only solution to orbit or is there another way to eat peace without the people have been domesticating animals for 10000 years was became dogs, wild, goats and sheep, retained, and or ox became cattle. today there farmed around the world with the u. s. and brazil producing the most. it's a $400000000000.00 industry, even if you're like me and eat no meat at all. i'm the guy just harriet, beef production spill affect to because it's responsible for 4300000000 metric tons of c o 2 every year. that's almost as much as the entire united states and fixing this isn't as simple as everyone going. beacon is to reality is right. we need to

recognize a couple ronko is a plant scientist and i p. c. c officer from colombia, focusing on making live stock more sustainable. their 1st one is found very little countries where people may choose what they eat. there are, at least i know that reality and for the open country where people are struggling for nutrients animal protein to make a huge difference. and beating up our beef production can help. but what's the best way to cope very simply speaking, there are 2 ways of raising cattle. one is grass fed farms like this one in northern germany, run by hi colquitt for dental with you. because what i guess what i can discuss is only have that extra inviting 0 be really easy then to have enough cost. that's really fixed and vans it to before that, i mean is as quickly it noise, this is a small operation right now. there are 50 animals here. eat in the spring. that's the phone. it doesn't cut about steven yadi here is uh, it's fine. i've got dividends the most of i do it from. yeah. on the highest and
4:19 pm
it's a cold, spotless conviction from the fact that i'm going to flash the room around a 160 high chairs and have a warm barn for the winter, raising cattle look similar to this in many places in the world. and then there are a few thoughts that can help thousands or tens of thousands of animals. they live in a confined area and eat mostly grain instead of grass as to which is better grasp it or feed lock is actually not that simple. let's compare sustainability using these categories. we'll start with what goes in to progress. fed cattle doesn't travel far because the combination of grass and clover which contains more protein during the summer. so this is all harvested and turned into that for them to eat over the winter. so grasping beef avoids the emissions and chemical run, also producing grain. it also winds on with water grasp and cattle drink from lakes or ground water. not so for feed lots, the cows drink water and soda, the crops grown to their feet. there is a downside to grass,
4:20 pm
the cows up deep more than green and what goes in also comes out wherever cows are, all these cows are basically constantly burping and farting which generates a lot of messy, essentially the bigger they are, the more methane, they make methane is indivisible, so best detected by satellite, it's way more potent than c o 2 on a diet of grass, animals go slower, so expel more mess in greenfield caps, surprise when for the feed. lots there. that would also comes out as manure in your, in lots of it, in addition to methane, it releases nitrous oxide and other potent greenhouse gas in the summer. the minority composes in the field and pollution levels are low during winter. the minorities handled similarly to a feed lot, like also technical there. it all comes out here and then it's shuttled over there where it's eventually turn into liquid and sprayed on fields. except on a feedlot manure is stored in large pools,
4:21 pm
releasing more methane and solid storage. and the more that there is, and the longer it's stored, the more it releases. another big difference is what it contains. on feed lots antibiotics we use to keep animals healthy and stimulate growth. they end up in those are newer pools and can leak into our water supply. antibiotic resistance, partially fueled, i mean production kills around a 1000000 people every year. one big downside to grafted farms is a fair way less efficient at producing meet these cows. i want to be 2 or 2 and a half, which is a rounding year longer than conventional operations. that means only 10 of them are cited every year. cows grow faster on feed lots, which makes it cheaper. meet usually mostly in by the very rich. so more efficient farming has made it more widely available. but for grasp it, you have to pay a premium. the cost of this me is really high at $22.00 euro per kilo. for
4:22 pm
comparison, the supermarket need is 10 the difference in price does speak to a difference in quality, don't the stuff to you as long as i've fixed the size, as long as i don't get back to the manufacturing homes, assignment deposit and most thursdays, fine. and i'm tired of that, i'm in the extra most intensive. i'm the time because i went on there. sure back in 58 and response is policy and flashing in my see, it would see if i can critique. quality is also tied to animal welfare as stressed animals make for worse, meet and on the lot. stressors are everywhere. eating green can cause ulcers and cattle, and they are often sick from the close quarters. transport and cattle is also stressful. so if you'd like to mit, less methane and meet is significantly cheaper. the grazing systems are better quality in animals, use less water and pollute less so far. they're winning on sustainability when viewed from a global scale, though, it's a different story. so
4:23 pm
a lot of discussions focus on the farm level for the food food system is nasty bits, global janet ranking asked and is an expert in calculating and evaluating greenhouse gas emissions. gene can't just focus on practices that might improve things at the bottom that we use. i flip, what is the system the and if the system level land use is the most important consideration, even including land to grow green, the lots use land more efficiently than grading systems according to german organic was that can only be about one full grown cow. perfect tear of land for scale. one hacked here is roughly 2 american football fields. that's a lot of land which we're running out. it's globally, we're using 2 thirds of our land to raise livestock. as more people eat meat, more land is the for us to to use for past year. we're losing $3000000.00 hectares per year. this way, it's a huge problem, especially in the amazon rain for us 40 percent of tropical forest las occurs and present one of the world's largest beef producers production. there is also
4:24 pm
extremely inefficient and that's something that needs to change. one of the most important things we do is to increase the productivity of livestock, and there's a huge appointment to be on vacation. we'll continue to do that because the productivity levels across the globe can vary by a 100 foot. one of the most hyped ways to increase productivity is rotational grazing. it's a practice of intensively grazing an area and then moving the animals to let it recover. it's been used by shepherds around the world for centuries and became popular in the 1950s in the us as a response to the greeting. pastor and climate change is putting it in the spotlight again. live stuff to address climate change and does advocate this ted talk has been viewed over a 1000000 times. your 3 key aspect of this technique. a more cattle, dividing a passers and planning agrees invitation instead of one cow per hector. think for their intensive grazing of a smaller area stimulates plants to grow faster and put down deeper routes for
4:25 pm
a new plan. you. ready are a great team, but carefully you are able to extract the best nutrients all their forages, and therefore you are able to read you your read relative methane emissions. it will not fired, but based on their portfolio. more meaningful or more beef. rotational grazing is more efficient without the environmental impacts of the feed lot. field studies like this one is also shown that it improves so quality. and the quest is carbon via the cat grass grows, sucking up c o 2, which is eaten by the animals as a trampled inventor. the carbon is stored under, grabbed the phone, is going to by using it, they're producing carbon neutral be. so these calculations don't really add up method, nitrous oxide are way more potent than c o 2. so the swell would have to continuously store way more carbon to make up for the emissions and the animals. and that's just not how soil works. the amount of carbon, though defined in storage source, is limited to inform you where rich i've talked to the agent. so those are also
4:26 pm
wildly different around the world to accomplish very complex. when you implement practice to increase your company, you're at war with the microphone just and working perfectly. rotational grazing still uses a lot of land studies have found around twice as much of feedback. it's not a silver bullet. the trouble is there is some familiar faces. painting it is one, this study was funded by general mills if grazing his carbon neutral, there's no reason for them to cut down on the production this movie about the benefits of rotational grazing was funded partially by show which uses the practice to offset fossil fuel emissions split swell is not an endless carbon sinks. so all sitting oil doesn't make sense. and because rotational grazing uses more precious land, converting cross fields into a pastor doesn't add up either, especially in places that produce massive amounts of meet. where it does make sense is places where people struggle to get enough protein or places with highly inefficient breathing systems. yes, we absolutely need to use things practices in places like columbia and countries in
4:27 pm
africa where these rotational partners actually restore. so helping increase productivity, that makes a huge lot of sense. another country where it makes a huge amount of sense is presented as the world's 2nd largest exporter of meet. improving efficiency will have a massive impact. rotational grazing could decrease deforestation and restore degraded areas. so if we continue to eat meat pie that's also have their place, but they need fixing and they can be more sustainable without making meet super expensive restrictions on the number of animals and requirements for them to have time outside improves animal welfare feed additives like algae can reduce methane emissions from cattle, nor can be treated to release less greenhouse gases, and not letting it sit for long periods of time can limit its impact in law's limiting antibiotic use and feed lots, reduced antibiotic resistance. no matter what though, this needs to go hand in hand with reduced consumption in some places. if we actually the limited beef consumption to about one and a half time brokers a week,
4:28 pm
we could to still continue to enjoy. so we can eat beef without ruining the planet, sort of people in places like the u. s. and e, you need to eat lots of it. that's the most effective way for them to lower their carbon footprint. and whether through better grazing or feed lots, we can make the production more sustainable by improving efficiency. but even so, producing beef is not good for the environment. so ensuring we change the current system is absolutely key to a future level of planet. so what do you think, friend, our dinner is the account with us? can we eat them and still be a sustainable? and because i got my shoes really dirty, please let us know in the comments and don't forget to subscribe. because we've got new videos every friday the
