Along_the_Wire alistair Honestly, the Guardian isn’t worth reading - it’s the least balanced newspaper out there and I’m including the Telegraph in that.
LT42 Straight from the horses mouth. Seems like every news publication out there is reporting the same thing anyway.. https://www.ipcc.ch/sr15/
Amps Along_the_Wire Yeah, I read recently that the average grass fed British cow sequesters as much bad stuff as it does good, but I didn’t get into the detail too much, could be bollocks.
Amps Dubman Yeah, it was something along the lines of grass / pasture fed cows put out hardly any methane, it’s the soy fed ones in crates that cause the issue, and the grass fed ones cause so much constant grass growth they are carbon negative as the grass growth captures fuck loads of carbon. Again, no idea how acurate that is.
Mad_Cyril I have decided to do my bit by buying less tunes that I’ll only play once. Thank me later 👍
vinnyt77 Amps There’s a great farm about 8 miles up the road from me. The farmer is environmentally conscious, and has been carefully raising his cattle for years. I trust him about as much as anyone on the subject… He reckons that if the cattle are entirely raised in pasture on grass, they’re a shade away from carbon neutral. The problem is transportation to the abattoir and onwards that tips the balance. At the point where he loads them onto transport, the husbandry is carbon neutral…
Dubman vinnyt77 We buy all our meat apart from chicken from the Goodwood house estate in Chichester. The abattoir is only a few miles away as well. It’s all organic and the grass fed beef is much stronger in taste. I think we travel more miles to buy it. But it’s wet worth it.
Smallman1 I eat strawberries all year round. Get them flown in from South Africa, Chile, all over the show. The same goes for blueberries and bananas. It’s always summer somewhere thank god.
Amps Ed’s having under floor heating, central heating, and wood burners installed in every room in an attempt to dry out his walls from the hole in the roof. The mold spores would cause all manner of illness for most human beings, but they have to travel so far down his neck before they get to his lungs they’re inert before they reach their destination.
PDJ mono-stereo Astounded that Amps didn’t comment on those! Cracking pair to be fair and she clearly knows how to use them to get attention… in this case for her “cause”.
