Depending on the study, estimates of animal farming’s contribution to climate change vary considerably. Widely cited, peer-reviewed sources — including the United Nations report “Livestock’s Long Shadow” and subsequent academic analyses — consistently place the industry’s share of global greenhouse gas emissions between 16.5% and 28%.

A 2013 UN report gave a lower estimate of just 14.5 percent, but this figure has been widely criticized for contradicting available evidence and for being influenced by industry lobbying.
