Beef itself isn’t the part that’s emitting. It’s all the transportation and handling and resources the beef needs. You can stop buying beef to lower emissions sure but you can’t replace eating beef with just eating more other shit that might also emit just as much.
This is a red herring but you know that grass fed cows don’t produce as much methane right? You know there is a considerable amount of energy used to maintain the cow right? This is energy that would be used almost regardless if we are to increase consumption of grains rather than cows which is the problem. We are going to get fatter as a civilization if we start eating less meat.

We will replace meat with palm oil and corn.
So tell me, where are you going to get all that grass to feed all the cows with?
Russia. We send them all to Russia and they can have all the cow villages they want.
