    In the USA? yeah. Also Big Oil. Almost for a hundred years, and they’re still doing it. And it’s easy when teachers are underpaid and overworked: just hand them “material” they can use free of charge. The system is working as designed.

    Just a quick reminder a cow cannot release one single carbon atom that wasn’t taken out of the atmosphere by photosynthesis.

      Yes, it’s a carbon cycle and the problem is, that we add more carbon from deposits of warmer times.

      But apparently, we have so much livestock, that the produced methane (with about 6x higher greenhouse effect) still has an effect despite it falling apart to CO² after a few years UV.
