    Maybe I’m misunderstanding your argument- as that publication back what we are saying about the beef industry having a massive impact on the environment

      read the methodology and you will see cottonseed is fed to cattle, and the water to grow that cotton is attributed to cows instead of the textile industry.

        Except cows are primarily fed corn in the US.

        Still not getting it- if the cottonseed is fed to the cows why do you think the water should be attributed to textiles?

        Cottonseed fed to cows is obviously not going to be grown into cotton and used in textiles…
