Earlier you were saying how you didn't trust only observational studies and wanted to see people actually doing randomized trials. That was for a meta-analysis, but this neither a meta-analysis nor an RCT. It is a single purely observa

If we're going to be citing a random YouTube video as the same weight as scientific studies, I don't see much point in continuing this conversation

This meta analysis talks about the findings of various RCT (Randomized controlled trial) studies in there. From another meta analysis which talks about this more directly: >Nevertheless, several RCTs have examined the effect of vegetaria

The initial paper claimed superconductivity up until 400 K (127 °C or 260 °F), so I think if that's the case it would be able to withstand outdoor conditions just fine

I don't understand the relevance of that study here? The study is not looking at effectiveness of "holistic grazing"? There's not any environmental analysis here nor anything quantitative. It's mainly looking at int

The position seems to be randomized each time you play it, so their solution isn't going to be of much use for you Also make sure to add the x for captures and the + for check and things like that

It doesn't do as much as you think for cattle feed as most the high % numbers you see touted are only looking at feedlot emissions - which are only 11% of overall cattle emissions. Actual reductions are pretty small >What’s more, fe

That's still red seaweed ("FutureFeed’s solution uses a specific type of red seaweed"). It like other seaweed additive, can only really be used in feedlots where as mentioned above, only account for ~11% of emissions

They are not looking at *overall emissions* which is the exact reason why they are getting larger numbers. They are only looking the emission reduction in feedlots which is a major point of that article I cited

How is that relevant? Are you saying that because cruel things happen in the wild we should be fine doing cruel things? I doubt we would accept someone justifying other acts by showing how it occurs in the wild such as stealing all the way

As long as the methane stays in the atmosphere it does warming. Taking 100+ year to reach equilibrium concentrations still means having massive amounts of methane in the atmosphere doing warming, just at an equilibrium. Because it breaks fa
