Comment on Proposed AB32 Legislation to include the reduction of animal agriculture

[Guest guest]

The Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB

32<http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/05-06/bill/asm/ab_0001-0050/ab_32_bill_20060927\

_chaptered.pdf>)

requires ARB to prepare a Scoping Plan to achieve reductions in greenhouse

gas (GHG) emissions in California.

Many of the folks on this list know about the UN report stating animal

agriculture causes more greenhouse gases than transportation

Please submit your comments here with the UN data point and the strong

suggestion that animal agriculture be reduced in favor of plant-based

agriculture :
