Environmental Impact of Cows

   The other day a cow started to charge me.  So I've been reading about cows.  This link points to one of the main reasons I first became vegetarian. I was reading a WHO report about the impact of cows on our environment in like, 1989, and decided to not contribute to that problem (I was still eating cheese then, though).  Methane & Deforestation, etc, because of the huge increase in numbers.  I realize in some parts of the world, cows may be a necessary food source; but right now people are super meat focussed (in general), and I don't think that is a good thing, given the impact on the earth & industry trying to compensate for demand (Concentrated Feedlot Operations).  The waste from the cows in CFOs is why spinach & other veggies are getting contaminated with salmonella; and its contaminating our waters.   mmm. need balance.
