Cattle are carbon neutral by definition. They emit exactly as much carbon as they take in. They literally have to. I know they try to get around this with 'muh methane' but methane isn't stable in the atmosphere and breaks down into CO2 eventually. The world has always had a absolute ton of ruminants and if anything their numbers are only now recovering in the Americas (still not recovered world wide because Africa).
Plus, even if cows were giant carbon/methane machines...excess carbon and the like can be used to do cool things like make deserts/tundras more suitable for life. Including plant life which, you know, is the other end of the chain. These people are absolute moron cultists.
