European agricultural emissions per capita (2019)

  1. It has to be be correlated with exports, I guess the Irish don’t eat all their sheeps, do they?

  2. I had no idea Ireland had that much cattle. I know Irish butter is popular. But i’ve never heard of Irish steaks.

    Denmark’s emissions is not a surprise. We are 5,6 million citizens and we have 21 million pigs. One of Europe’s biggest pork exporters.

  3. Surprised we aren’t higher, considering our incredible success in exporting wooden, tasteless tomatoes and love of all things milk.

  4. It would be nice to see these stats but per kg produced. This mostly shows us who the biggest agricultural countries are (and Finland for some reason…)

  5. I actually feel this isn’t the most interresting number, as some countries may feed their neigbouring countries. I am more, can someone make numbers on agricultural emissions per million fed, or something?

  6. My neighbor in Italy grows like 10 different crops commercially and more for his family and does it all with actual love and passion. To the farmers in the high GHG countries, it’s a business, not a passion. They just want it to be easy and maximally profitable.
