The nation's leading industry group representing U.S. beef producers blasted Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams after he announced an effort earlier this week to push plant-based meals.
The National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA), which represents cattlemen and affiliate organizations across all 50 states, accused Adams of misleading on the carbon footprint and emissions profile of the American meat industry. The group noted that beef cattle represent a small fraction of nationwide emissions.
"It’s easy for Mayor Adams to lob attacks at beef, anything that makes for better headlines than ‘Meet NYC’s Rat Czar,’ but the reality is that greenhouse gas emissions from beef cattle represent only 2 percent of emissions in the United States," NCBA Vice President of Government Affairs Ethan Lane told Fox News Digital. "In fact, all of agriculture accounts for approximately 11 percent of U.S. emissions and that includes everything in the Mayor’s vegan diet."

Good point that the Mayor’s vegan diet has a carbon footprint.
He wants us all to be vegan , but what about the carbon footprint associated with producing vegan food? How does he justify that?
Good point. How about vegan farts?
I look forward to hearing the news about that idiot mayor being taking into an alley by real New Yorkers who beat the little turd to within an inch of his sorry assed life.
This soooo fits with the blog post directly above it.
“I look forward to hearing the news about that idiot mayor being taking into an alley by real New Yorkers who beat the little turd to within an inch of his sorry assed life.”
They didn’t do it to DeBlasio and he was as worthy of a beating as any.
Does he really expect to enforce this on African Americans (being one himself)?
It’s hard to tell the difference between SFB Adams and KJ-P if I’m not looking at the TV when they speak,
If NYC is known for anything, it’s good, tasty food.
Democrats in power don’t have to justify anything to anybody. Ever.
Adams is virtue signaling his veganism. He gets a little power and he abuses it on some fad. Climate change is a hoax used as a pretext to foist the Big Reset on us. Of course, he will exempt himself since he is so special.
“..Adams after he announced an effort earlier this week to push plant-based meals..”
Push your plant based meals up your ass.
