Agriculture emits greenhouse gases, but less than using fossil fuels, despite recent paper’s claim
A paper used unusual accounting methods by looking only at gross emissions and omitting CO2 sinks through reforestation; climate scientists explain that this method is misleading. It is like evaluating the status of your bank account based only on your income without looking at your expenses.
Article in The Guardian misleads readers about sensitivity of climate models by narrowly focusing on single study
“The article correctly reports that the most recent versions of some climate models estimate more warming for a given increase in CO2 concentrations.

However, it does not report all the science available on this topic and its claims are thus misleading.”
