White people’s eating habits produce most greenhouse gases
University of Illinois at Chicago website ^ | March 27, 2019

White individuals disproportionately affect the environment through their eating habits by eating more foods that require more water and release more greenhouse gases through their production compared to foods black and Latinx individuals eat, according to a new report published in the Journal of Industrial Ecology.

The report takes an in-depth look at what different demographic populations eat, how much greenhouse gas those foods are responsible for, and how much land and water they require. The study was undertaken to get a better understanding of the environmental impacts of the food consumption patterns of major demographic groups so that environmental policies designed to reduce negative impacts of food production could be drafted that take these differences into account.

“The food pipeline – which includes its production, distribution and waste – contributes significantly to climate change through the production of greenhouse gases and requires significant amounts of water and land, which also has environmental effects,” said Joe Bozeman, a student in the University of Illinois at Chicago Institute for Environmental Science and Policy and first author on the paper. “If we are to draft policies related to food, they can’t be one-size-fits-all policies because different populations have different eating patterns which have their own unique impacts on the environment.”

The MSM-Democrats are trying to create a separate virtual Weimar America, a culture medium in which they can hatch the creatures that will take their plan to the next level.

Unbelievable! Are you sure this isn't satire?!

By the way, I've seen the foods non-white ethnic groups eat, and I can guarantee that those foods definitely contribute to "greenhouse gas".

I think Stalin felt the same way.

To quote the great philosopher Cleese, a Northern European white guy: “I fart in your general direction!”

Hillary is as White as an Albino and she carries Hot Sauce in her Purse.

I’m sitting here enjoying my brunch: Meat and veggie omelette, toasted italian bread, bacon, sausages, and coffee. I hope I sent out a whale load of greenhouse gases when I made it, and even more while I eat it.
