On Thanksgiving, the U.S. consumes about 46 million turkeys, with a typical turkey feast for eight producing around 44 pounds of CO2 emissions. The turkey's lifecycle accounts for 60% of this footprint, while the rest comes from vegetable growth, food storage, shopping, cooking, and waste management.
