All these solutions like the stupid cow backpack and altering animal feed seem like they only have little effect and only provides a solution for one or two of the multiple problems associated with livestock farming. The only proper solution is to eliminate it or at least substantially reduce livestock agriculture.
Unfortunately you can't have your steak and eat it too
Has science gone too far?
....sooooo a relatively easy solution that potentially reduces the methane output of the industry by a staggering 30 percent shouldn't be pursued?
Because it seems like until we can mass produce factory grown meat, it isn't a bad choice.
No that should definitely be pursued, anything will help and I'm not saying it shouldn't be done, but how much help overall is it doing exactly? One of the biggest environmental problems caused by livestock agriculture is deforestation, and this won't help mitigate that. A reduction of methane output by 30% is good, but it's not good enough to solve the problem.
Like I said earlier, and like you're saying now, the only solution is to eliminate or significantly reduce livestock agriculture, and because the general global population is too stubborn or too entrenched in their culture to give up eating meat (and I get it, meat is delicious), the development of fake meat and lab grown meat will help achieve this.
