When it comes to global warming, the left have apparently run out of people to blame. Now, they’re blaming the cows.
Former President Barack Obama warned the world that more people on the planet were eating meat, causing a dramatic rise in climate emissions.
“As people want to increase meat consumption, that in turn is spiking the growth of greenhouse emissions coming out of the agricultural sector,” Obama said, pointing to countries that were consuming more meat.
The former president shared his views about the growing threat during a conversation about food with his former chef Sam Kass at a food innovation summit in Milan.
“People aren’t as familiar with the impact of cows and methane,” Obama said, adding that “as people want to increase more meat consumption, that in turn is spiking the growth of greenhouse emissions coming out of the agricultural sectors.”
The amount of cows, Obama explained, were contributing to global pollution, alluding to the amounts of methane gas emissions from cow herds.
What have these poor cows done to invite the ridicule of Barack Obama and the left? It just goes to show that no one is immune from the leftist outrage machine. Not even cows — or their farts.
Obama wasn’t quite thoughtful enough in his statements, however. He shared his views during the conversation about food with his former chef, Sam Kass, who called him out on his hypocrisy:
During the conversation, Obama argued with Kass about how many steaks he had cooked him.
Kass said that he probably cooked “thousands of steaks” for the president, but Obama interrupted.
“I don’t think, thousands,” he protested.
“Well hundreds maybe,” Kass backtracked. “I’ve been cooking for you for 10 years.”
“What is true is that I’m not a vegetarian,” Obama admitted, adding that he “respected vegetarians” but continued to eat meat.
So climate change is unaffected if you eat smaller steaks, but by the ‘thousands’? Or is it that climate change is unaffected if those on the Left sitting in high places eat tons of steak?
