what makes you think that?
Empirical data.
but this is from poore-nemecek 2018. it's not good science.
do you have something else to support this claim?
imstill reading your 2012 water footprint paper, btw
Is this better science for you?
since this study relies on poore-nemecek 2018, at least in part, I'm suspicious. they also admit they didn't gather the data themselves, and although they never mention LCAs directly, my guess is there is a similar mishandling of source data. but I'll read it today or tomorrow
I'm curious what source you have to discredit the poore-nemecek study. The only thing I could find was farmer's against agriculture misinformation, which seemed biased at best and also did not cite their claims well.
The LCA studies that they cite specifically give guidance that it cannot be combined with other LCA studies. some of the studies they cite are meta studies that actually acknowledge this, but the poore-nemecek paper doesn't even bother to acknowledge it.
