Deforestation in most cases is bad, as it could cause soil erosion, loss of soil moisture holding properties, and water recycling.
Eating meat instead of veg is nonsense, it is part of the natural carbon cycle.
Actually this is not a simple theory, agriculture to grow grains reduces the carbon content of the soil by half, feeding these grains to animals for us to eat, means that the nutrients in their faeces and urine are often not recycled back to the land, this is bad for the soil and the atmosphere.
However free range cattle farming is the complete opposite, as all nutrients are recycled, and the soil builds up a rich high carbon content, storing away carbon.
Prairie soils have deep rich high carbon soils and probably hold more carbon than rainforests do.
Yes, they say that but there are no facts to back them up. For instance, during the last decade the temperature has dropped while CO2 level has risen.

So go with what the earth tells you not the IPCC.
Quote by Chris Folland of UK Meteorological Office: “The data don't matter. We're not basing our recommendations [for reductions in carbon dioxide emissions] upon the data. We're basing them upon the climate models.”
Global Warming is the increase of Earth's average surface temperature due to effect of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels or from deforestation, which trap heat that would otherwise escape from Earth.
Global warming and climate change both refer to the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system and its related effects. Multiple lines of scientific evidence show that the climate system is warming.

thery are in order.
according to ipcc 3 factors contributing to global warming are 1. co2 emmission 2. change of land use aforestation 3. non veg food place them in the order of their contribution to global warming
