Meat, Dairy Industry Surpass Big Oil As World’s Biggest Polluters
July 31, 2018
 

By Paul Homewood


From Zero Hedge:

Within the next few decades, Big Meat and Big Dairy could surpass Big Oil as the world’s biggest climate polluters, a new study by non-profit GRAIN and the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy (IATP) showed on Wednesday.

The world’s biggest animal protein producers could soon surpass ExxonMobil, Shell, and BP as the largest contributors to climate pollution, according to the study.

IATP and GRAIN jointly published the study that quantifies emissions from 35 of the world’s largest meat and dairy companies and reviews their plans to fight climate change.

Yeah, the media always says "Big Oil" to make it seem oil companies are a monopoly in collusion.  Only OPEC in the oil sector is in collusion.
