    The Meat Market's Greenhouse Gas Emissions

    Dear Ms. Chart,


    To compare Country of Origin Labeling and greenhouse gas emissions is comparing apples and oranges, at best.  We opposed country of original labeling laws because it served as an impediment to trade and raised the cost of doing business for meat companies and the cost of eating meat for consumers.  As for greenhouse gas emissions, the U.S. meat industry is one of the most efficient on the planet at producing our products, which means our environmental footprint is much smaller than that of our competitors.  These two issues have nothing in common.
