So you admit organic poultry's not a significant contributor then? A small amount of greenhouse gas is a price I am willing to pay for the other benefits.

you're not understanding the nature of opportunity costs. We're not just talking about alternative commercial use, we're talking about a resource that could be used to support environmentalism. Organic farmers aren't supporting environmentalism. They're land hogs
