- Livestock Don’t Contribute 14. 5% of Global Greenhouse Gas . . .
For its part, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations has released a new, lower estimate that livestock produce 12% of global greenhouse gas emissions Peer-reviewed studies have put the figure higher, at up to 19 6% of emissions

Livestock supply chains account for 7 1 GT CO2, equivalent to 14 5% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions Cattle (beef, milk) are responsible for about two-thirds of that total, largely due to methane emissions resulting from rumen fermentation
- Livestock and climate change: impact of livestock on climate . . .
The livestock sector requires a significant amount of natural resources and is responsible for about 14 5% of total anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions (7 1 Gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalents for the year 2005; Gerber et al , 2013)

Meanwhile, the livestock sector contributes 14 5% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, driving further climate change Consequently, the livestock sector will be a key player in the mitigation of GHG emissions and improving global food security

Greenhouse gases (GHG) are the main drivers of global climate change Livestock production systems account for about 14 5% of all anthropogenic GHG and 70% of all emissions from agriculture, forestry, and other land use [1, 2]

When emissions from land use and land use change are included, the livestock sector accounts for 9 per cent of CO2 deriving from human-related activities, but produces a much larger share of
