Emissions, Global warming or a scam

I was watching a thing about a project in Africa, where they are restoring grassland. They discovered the problem was too few cows. The biosphere in their neck o the kids requires a certain concentration of roaming rumenants to survive. Without the cows, the grass doesn't get cropped, and dies standing in the winter, whereapon it chemically decomposes as opposed to biologically deconpises, which robs the soul of nutrients. The cows hoofs also break up the crust, which allows rain to penetrate and pool. Without the crust disruption, the rainfall runs off as is wasted. I'll try and find it again...

In fact the studies showed that such grasslands if grazed in the right way act as a bigger carbon sink than all the worlds rainforests combined.  But this is a whole different business from most modern animal farming.  In fact this beneficial grazing requires no added food or water.  Here in the UK cows need 160 litres of water per day from troughs, and haylage etc by the ton.

True. But then we do have lots of water.

Well not all the UK.  I seem to remember watching a program years ago which said that many English rivers were way too low mainly due to abstraction for farms.  
 

Probably not a problem here in Wales or Scotland I would guess.
