I ran across this book and, given the bad rap cows—meat animals in general—have been getting lately, I picked it up and read it. It’s an interesting little book and I recommend that anyone interested in the environment or good nutrition or global climate change should read it.It’s really about restoring the earth’s soils—with a little help from grazing animals. In a chapter entitled “Ground Zero for Carbon Dioxide Reduction Is the Ground,†she cites some startling studies describing the relationship between soils and global climate change. According to Rattan Lal of Ohio State University, “. . . the soil could offset about one-third of the human-generated emissions annually absorbed in the atmosphere.†She goes on to say that “We’ve lost an estimated 50 to 80 percent carbon in our soils over the last 150 years.â€In a chapter called “Beyond Eat Your Vegetables,†Schwartz reveal the lack of nutrition in our soils and how that translates into less nourishing food. She quotes nutrition and agriculture educator, “Some nutritionists estimate that the food we eat today has just 30 percent of the nourishment of what our grandparents ate as children. The major reason,†says Sait, “is declining soil quality . . .â€â€œ. . . the major portion of farm income is now expended on the inputs required to maintain production as soil function fails. An enormous industry . . . depends on us not finding solutions to the problems in agriculture,†Schwartz writes. These problems generate enormous income for manufacture of synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides and fungicides, toxins that sterilize the soil, she continues.And how do cows get into this discussion? It’s not through the gas they emit, although the digestive process that produces methane also benefits the soil. Herbivores’ chewing and digesting with the help of millions of microorganisms in their guts break down plant materials so that they can fertilize the soil. Their hooves disturb the soil so moisture and nutrients can enter.My dad wrote in a letter, back in the late forties, that the “future of the Great Plains is in cattle.†One argument against growing meat animals states that they take up land that could be used for growing crops to feed people. But some areas, not suited to growing food for people, provide good grazing. Managed properly, those areas can produce succulent grass-fed meat as well as building soil and sequestering carbon.Schwartz’s arguments are compelling. Again, I recommend Cows Save the Planet: And Other Improbably Ways of Restoring Soil to Heal the Earth by Judith D. Schwartz.
Judith D. Schwartz has written an entertaining and instructive book Cows Save The Planet: And Other Improbable Ways of Restoring Soil to Heal the Earth, that left me with two feelings. First, it's a hopeful message that we can overcome our bad past decisions and correct the factors that are causing the degradation of our environment which is at the root of so much human suffering and disruptions around the globe. Second, she introduced me to a cast of inspiring characters who are working hard to find ways to restore grasslands, utilize natural systems to increase the quantity and quality of our food, conserve water, safely store carbon from the air into the ground, and most important, improve the vitality of the most important resource on earth - soil. Finally, after finishing the book I look forward to help solve our many pressing problems. Cows Save the Planet made me fall in love with this world again. I recommend people read this book and be inspired to look at our future in a fresh new way.
A great book for those who want to better understand the ways a well managed livestock operation can help improve water cycling and soil health. A must read for those who believe that cow farts are the cause of climate change. This book is a paradigm changer.
This is really important information. This country needs to stop growing so many annual crops (corn and wheat) which deplete the soil and require huge amounts of petroleum fertilizers and petroleum for harvest and planting. We must put more land back into grass. The USFS and BLM need to really monitor the grass on existing land so as to maintain natural grasses that cattle feed on. A friend of mine raises Wagyu cattle on public land which has been monitored responsibly for over 50 years and those cattle eat only grass. The meat grades choice and sometimes prime so it tastes good plus has very high Amino fatty acids. It can be done.
Incredible, Schwartz one ups Michael Pollen, taking an urgent and complicated message and making it accessible and a pleasure to read. It is so important for all of us to read this book, and deepen our efforts to understand climate change and what we can do about it.
So much detail that you come away wanting more. We are not separate from the planet we live on, we are integral to the whole life cycle. None more important than any other part.
thanx
This book does much more than bring awareness of the effects of grazing animals on the Earth's agricultural land. It covers the broad spectrum of environmental interactions with soils, plants, animals, humans, water, weather, climates and health. It argues that modern agricultural technology is unsustainable, counter-productive, and threatens the health of all life on the planet.
