Comment on Why is the consumption of Meat considered bad
commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months agono. I just want to see how much water they say cows consumed from cotton and the total amount of water they say was used to grow the cotton. and then I want you to ask yourself if it’s reasonable to attribute ANY of that water to cows (it isn’t)

Cam you link specifically what you mean? I don’t see any attribution of cotton water to cattle in the 2018 Poor, Nemeck.

i’m having problems right now even pulling up the full article, but, to my recollection, they didn’t actually gather any of this data themselves, so you should be able to find some oblique reference to water used somewhere in the body of the paper, and then follow the citation to the actual study that did gather the data.

The 2018 article doesn’t mention cotton at all as far as I can tell.
