Summary
Following the driest October recorded in over 150 yeaR, New York City Mayor Eric Adams has issued a drought watch and urged residents to take shorter showers, fix dripping faucets, and implement water-conservation plans.
The city is also repairing a leaky aqueduct, leading to increased reliance on reservoirs in the northern suburbs, which also experienced a drier-than-average October.
because it takes a lot of water to raise cattle?
Yes, also it’s really bad for climate change
Takes a lot of water and they release a not insignificant amount co2 and methane.
Actually insane amounts of water yeah. Meat is very water inefficient sadly.
Also, I don’t think the cows are really into it.
I saw a comment on a thread here on Lemmy the other day that said we should be raising more cattle to help the environment and I was just dumbfounded.
Cow farts actually are a leading cause for climate change. Their shit literally is a greenhouse gas.
