Producing half a pound of ground beef releases as much greenhouse gas as driving a car nearly 10 miles. Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) contribute more greenhouse gases than the entire global transportation industry by releasing vast amounts of gases into the atmosphere. Air quality tests at some U.S. factory farms found dirtier air than in the most polluted American cities according to the Environmental Integrity Project.
