I’d like to see if this analysis holds up if you change the human deaths this century per kgs variable (as well as took into account wild animal deaths).
The “0,00000025” just comes from Bressler 2021, from what I see. I did some calculations to see how much the Bressler rate differs from another rate I’ve read about—the Climate Vulnerability Monitor. It’s possible the Bessler number undercounts by a factor between 1:2 and 1:34
Key limitations with my numbers:
The Bressler number is looking forward to the future but, to compare it, I apply that rate to all existing GHG emissions.
Beef production might have an asymmetric contribution to climate versus pollution; the latter being the biggest contributor to the Climate Vulnerability Monitor’s high-end numbers
I cherry picked the Climate Vulnerability Monitor. Maybe there is research out there that suggests the GHG kg/human death rate is even lower than Bressler’s
