Killing that many cows will have the secondary bonus of reducing demand for corn and grains, lowering prices for poor people to eat, also it will increase the amount of grain that can be used for ethanol production, helping cut the greenhouse effect even more.
Pigs should go too, massive pig factories pollute the air, ground water and surface water.
