Agriculture is responsible for about 14% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Cows that produce milk and are carved into steaks are the biggest offenders in the ag sector. That's one reason why environmentalists love to hate cattle, which emit climate eating methane from both ends of their bodies, but people love their milk and burgers. Milk.

Young, conservative, Catholic, and stewards of the earth: this growing group is speaking up on climate change. In a radio interview with Ohio News Network, CCLer Topher Anderson explains that it is his Catholic faith and the teachings of Pope Francis that guide him to work on climate change. Topher just met with his Republican members of Congress in March of 2021. He's asking them to take action on climate change, using solutions that are consistent with conservative values. Topher believes these values of small government and belief in American ingenuity are needed to craft solutions that will work for all of America. Will Topher and other young Catholics have success? They're working on growing their numbers and making their voices heard. Citizens' Climate Lobby (CCL) is a home for many people of faith, who approach their advocacy through creation care and being stewards of the earth. We provide the training and organization that ordinary people need to be effective climate advocates. Learn more at http://cclusa.org
