Rep. Jodey Arrington: Memorial Day weekend – US beef is not a climate villain. Let's support our ranchers
Fox News
From bedtime stories of weathered cattlemen driving their herds across arid plains to the seductive smell of barbeque, beef is deeply woven into the cultural and economic fabric of Texas. Unfortunately, the industry has become an undeserving scapegoat in discussions surrounding climate change in recent years.
The article went so far as to wildly declare that, "beef is a climate villain." False claims like this not only deceive the public, but they distort the market and disrupt our food supply chain. Due to advancements in biotechnology, cattle nutrition, and stewardship practices by producers, the U.S. is a global leader in sustainable beef production. In fact, no other country is as efficient as the U.S., producing 18% of the global beef supply with only 6% of the world’s herd.More Related News
