In 2022, methane from enteric fermentation accounted for 27 4% of total anthropogenic methane emissions in the US and 3% of total gross emissions How Do We Solve This? 1 Changing Cattle Diet Enteric methane is the result of a high-fiber diet of grass and hay fed to cattle It helps the body eliminate excess hydrogen in the most energy

In their article discussing the impacts of farm animal production on climate change, Koneswaran and Nierenberg (2008) called for “immediate and far-reaching changes in current animal agriculture practices” to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions One of their recommendations was to switch to organic livestock production, stating that

Based on research using this indicator, Pelletier et al noted that a significant source of GHG emissions in food production in the United States (US) includes emissions from energy consumption in the processing industry, including cooking, chilling, and freezing, which accounts for 15–20% of the total energy consumption in the US food system

While agricultural activities were responsible for a quarter of the total GHG emissions in the Seine basin (14,295 vs 61,284 Gg CO 2 eq yr −1, Table 2), the hydrosystem only accounted for a small proportion of the total emissions of each of the three gases 4 5% for CO 2, 0 1% for CH 4, and 1 9% for N 2 O (Fig 7, Table 2)
