Most living creatures can be regarded as reciprocal engines and these "God-made" facilities combust oxygen to generate heat and work while exhaling CO2 and H2O. The efficiencies are low so most of the food is given back to the surroundings as manure and exhaust gases. In addition we must add the extra work and power that is needed to manage the growth of food and the daily running of the piggery. But ...... we have a tendency to focuss on animals as the harmfull elements on this globe. I challenge you to make the same calculations for human. And add the "man-made"CO2-emission on their account. You will truly be amazed. CO2-emissions must be calculated from 'Field-to-Fart' and it's indeed amazing how much CO2 is generated.
