Wait, how does beef emit carbon? I thought the main problem with beef was methane, not carbon emissions.

Ah, I see, your graph says CO2-equivalent, not CO2. It's the methane.

It's the infrastructure required to create a pound of beef, including the farmed grains.

I don't think it is, I think it's the methane, which is by far the largest greenhouse gas contributor in the process. Besides, the other emissions go away once your energy production is renewables.
