HOW DOGS DAMAGE THE PLANET LIKE A 4X4
REPORT: A MEDIUM-sized dog has the same carbon impact as a Toyota Land Cruiser driven 6,000 miles a year, a new book claims.
Time To Eat The Dog: The Real Guide To Sustainable Living also suggests a cat is equivalent to running a Volkswagen Golf.
The findings are based on the amount of land needed to grow food for pets.
Even a pair of hamsters do the same damage as running a plasma television, say the book’s authors Robert and Brenda Vale.
But rabbits and chickens were eco-friendly because they provide meat for their owners, while a canary or a goldfish does little harm to the planet, the authors said.
