The cost of the climate damage caused by organic meat production is just as high as that of conventionally farmed meat, according to research.
The analysis estimated the greenhouse gas emissions resulting from different foods and calculated how much their prices would need to rise to cover the harm they cause by fuelling the climate emergency.
For beef and lamb, organic and conventional production resulted in similar climate costs, the study found. Organic chicken was slightly worse for the climate and organic pork slightly better than their conventional counterparts.
MĂȘme la viande la moins polluante serait 8 fois pire que le vĂ©gĂ©tal le plus polluant ! Cela montre la catastrophe Ă©cologique que reprĂ©sentent les POA (Produits d’Origine Animale).
