The Dilemma
It’s summer here in the Northern hemisphere, and evenings are perfect for grilling. But as you head out the back door with a plate of veggie burgers and kebabs, is it more sustainable to light up some charcoal, or use a propane tank?

Great bit of green geekery, I like the level and tone of the analysis:
The CO2 production in beef or pork far outstrips the CO2 you make cooking the food. So if you’re looking to be more sustainable, the most important place to start is with what’s on your grill.
