    Eat whale and save the planet

    OSLO (Reuters) - Eat a whale and save the planet, a Norwegian pro-whaling lobby said on Monday of a study showing that harpooning the giant mammals is less damaging to the climate than farming livestock.

    Environmental group Greenpeace dismissed the survey, saying almost every kind of food was more climate friendly than meat.

    The survey, focused on whale boats' fuel use, showed that a kilo (2.2 lbs) of whale meat represented just 1.9 kilo (4.2 lbs) of greenhouse gases against 15.8 for beef, 6.4 for pork and 4.6 for chicken.

    Either way, you're helping to save the planet by munching a whale.
