All Gassed Up?

I recently heard a nationally syndicated "pundit" bemoaning how much gasoline it took to produce the traditional beef found in the grocery stores.  By the time you add up the fuel used to grow the corn to feed the steer, to haul the steer to and from the feedlots, to haul the processed beef to it's final destination in the supermarket, it's a significant amount.  This "expert" then coyly asked if it wouldn't be better for the planet, more "green", if we all stopped eating beef.

 

Well, there's another alternative.

 

Why not START eating grassfed beef?  The use of fossil fuels to produce such a product is a small percentage of that of the grainfed beef.  My guess is that most grassfed beef in the US is bought and eaten within a short distance of where it is produced, instead of being shipped 1500 miles or more, as is the average distance travelled for most products in the typical supermarket. 

 

Wouldn't this be a way we could have our beef and eat it, too?

 

GO GREEN!  EAT GRASSFED!

The Lowline Lifestyle Blog

Welcome!

Glad you could drop by!

We want to use this blog as another means of communications with all you folks who are dreaming of, and working towards, living The Lowline Lifestyle.

Please keep checking back to see what's new around here.

We'd love to have you leave a quick note to let us know what you think on any given subject we may discuss!

We decided to create Lowline Lifestyle so we can share our knowledge and experiences in selecting, raising and selling Lowline Angus cattle. But just as
importantly we want to share the wealth of information and ideas that we
glean from working with and talking to so many other breeders and
potential breeders.

We feel that Lowline cattle offer both a wonderful complement to a
lifestyle that brings you closer to nature as well as a profitable
business opportunity. We realized from our own experience that it is not
always easy to find answers to your questions. So we decided to provide a
forum to facilitate better exchange of information both for current
breeders and also for potential breeders, hence Lowline Lifestyle has been
born.
