Go Green: Eat More Kangaroo ?

Everybody wants to be green these days, which is good by the way. Anything to help sustain the earth is a good thing.

One way to do this is to eat less meat, beef to be exact. A research in UNSW has found that by cutting beef production 20% is equivalent to reduce 15 million tonnes of methane. Therefore, lowering Australia's greenhouse emissions.

This can be achieved by consuming more kangaroo meat (instead of beef) or by switching to a low-meat diet. It is said that beef production is the biggest contributor to methane emissions which is livestock related.

So what will you eat tonight ?
