00:01The fabric of nature hangs in the balance.
00:05Because our planet is under threat,
00:08and one creature is at the center of it all.
00:14Every day, between now and 2050,
00:17it gets harder to feed the world.
00:19We have had the mantra pounded into us,
00:22you gotta produce more, you gotta feed the world.
00:24If we keep eating animal products on this scale,
00:27climate change continues to be exacerbated.
00:30Many people would say,
00:31cows are the worst thing in the world for the climate.
00:37People say, let's just get rid of livestock and grow crops instead.
00:42That's not possible.
00:43We're really missing the bigger picture.
00:46In a world without cows,
00:47we may be giving up one of our best tools to help heal the planet.
00:51If we want to truly mitigate climate change,
00:55we need animals on the landscape.
00:59How do we pull that carbon out of the atmosphere
01:02and put it back into the soil?
01:04That's where livestock come in.
01:06Agriculture holds the key to saving our planet.
01:12What really happens if you take all the cows away?
01:15Are we better off in a world without cows?
