We learned an ironic twist in the film called "The Other Inconvenient Truth." It was that a. agriculture creates more pollution than other sources, but we have to increase farming for the growing population b. that nitrogen in the soil is significant pollution, but if we don't use these fertilizers we will not have enough food c. That methane is produced by animals and by growing rice. So becoming vegetarian won't clear methane from the atmosphere. d. agriculture uses 70% of fresh water mined , causing a salt water pollution too
