A beef industry-funded effort to teach teenagers about cattle’s climate impact was quietly scrapped following backlash from some ranchers, who disputed the premise that cows contribute to global heating.

Oh so their day job is cattle ranching but they moonlight as climate scientists?

No one gets to dispute provable scientific facts, unless they have supporting evidence. And "I dispute this because it's bad for my business" is not evidence.

quash ≠ squash

Holy fuck when you look like an asshole compared to the fucking factory farming companies, you are truly a magnificent asshole.

Genuinely, farmers here in the states are such regressive fuckwits, it beggars belief. I know there are exceptions to the rule, but seriously, I honestly do hope that all of these willfully ignorant imbeciles get absolutely economically crushed, because they deserve it.

Corrupt industry modifies industry propaganda to be even more self-serving.

It's disgusting that any educational institution would use this marketing bullshit as a component of their curriculum.

So much for Bovine University

its own science

... that's not how science works at all. 🥲
