Livestock does actually help to sequester and condense more carbon than vegetable production -assuming it is done in a reasonable manner- as always. It's also an effective way to convert various sources of energy (though all, ultimately solar) into a source of energy useful for human beings.
@ Nora, often those things which we cannot personally process, or that which we feel to be unfit for human consumption, though by no means always. No one (besides florida growers) is dumping truckloads of tomatoes in their livestock enclosure. As an amusing aside, florida growers actually do precisely this, by doing doughnuts in dumptrucks full of tomatoes with the gates open...and let me just say, watching a herd of cattle chase a dumptruck in a psuedo wagon train- priceless.
