Even though I suspect that livestock is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emmissions, the article that this post links to has no references.
http://www.worldwatch.org/files/pdf/Livestock%20and%20Climat... The author suggests that "Some tried to publish a critique of the study" ..."but none were able to do a good enough job to get such a critique published in a peer-reviewed journal." However, I don't see any evidence that the study to be critiqued was peer-reviewed itself, and I can't imagine how it would be without references. I think anthropomorphic climate change is a serious issue. But I hate to see claims without serious data. It only leads to extend debate.
