But the revelation in the book "Time to Eat the Dog: The Real Guide to Sustainable Living" by New Zealanders Robert and Brenda Vale has angered pet owners who feel they are being singled out as troublemakers. The Vales, specialists in sustainable living at Victoria University of Wellington, analysed popular brands of pet food and calculated that a medium-sized dog eats around 164 kilos (360 pounds) of meat and 95 kilos of cereal a year. Combine the land required to generate its food and a "medium" sized dog has an annual footprint of 0.84 hectares (2.07 acres) -- around twice the 0.41 hectares required by a 4x4 driving 10,000 kilometres (6,200 miles) a year, including energy to build the car. To confirm the results, the New Scientist magazine asked John Barrett at the Stockholm Environment Institute in York, Britain, to calculate eco-pawprints based on his own data. The results were essentially the same. "Owning a dog really is quite an extravagance, mainly because of the carbon footprint of meat," Barrett said. Other animals aren't much better for the environment, the Vales say... 所以家裏那隻大黃比四輪帶動的休旅車還糟蹋地球? 這裏只是轉貼一則有關環保的科學報導, 信不信由你. 個人沒有小貓小狗,也從不仇視它們. 不過當鋪天蓋地的,人為暖化,減碳,碳權,碳足跡...改變生活方式...犧牲一點... 能不能問一下高爾, 陳文茜...您犧牲大黃還是汽車? 牛羊畜牧,甲烷更甚於二氧化碳. 豬牛屠盡,下一個又是誰? 難不成要像1976年一部由小說拍成的電影, Logan's Run 每個人到三十歲就該告辭?! 誰做此決定, 世界峰會? 所以在您對人為暖化,減碳深信不疑前... |
