Energy ConsumptionMeat production is
responsible for deteriorating biological system
in terms of energy consumption,
particularly unrenewable energy consumption.
According to New Scientist,producing a
kilogram’s beef consumes 169 megajoules
of energy which is enough to light a 100-watt
bulb for nearly 20 YEARS.
The calculations did not include the impact
of maintaining farm infrastructure and
transporting the meat.

能量消耗生产肉类对生态的影响还反映
在能量消耗方面,尤其是非再生能源.具
<新科学家杂志> (New Scientist),
每生产一公斤牛肉消耗1.69亿焦耳能量.
相当于一个100瓦的灯泡持续亮20年消耗的能量.
这还不包括维护农机和运输消耗的能量.
