Summary:
- The article discusses the criticism from scientists towards the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) for failing to withdraw a report that downplayed the environmental impact of livestock emissions.
- The report, titled "Livestock's Long Shadow," was published in 2006 and has been widely criticized for underestimating the contribution of livestock to global greenhouse gas emissions.
- Scientists are calling on the FAO to acknowledge the flaws in the report and withdraw it, as it continues to be cited and used to justify policies that do not adequately address the environmental impact of the livestock industry.
