With all the recent hype about global warming it seems that one of the largest contributors is being ignored. No I am not talking about Methane from farting and belching cows.
Nitrogen which is used to create chemical fertilsers, pesticides and animal feeds has a 300 times greater effect on the global warming epidemic than Co2.
Of course organic crops are grown without the use of chemical fertilisers and pesticides so choosing the organic option is not contributing to global warning in this way.
