It's both. There are trillions of cattle producing an enormous quantity of feces every day that produce enormous quantities of methane, which is a far worse greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide per gram

AFAIK there's actually less than a billion cattle

That’s why too many cattle, we need way less than that, a few hundred or thousand should be enough
