About meat specifically -- one has to be careful when counting all greenhouse gases versus just CO2, and pure quantity of gas vs. effect on global warming.
Cattle produces a lot of methane, which has a very powerful greenhouse effect, a lot more powerful than CO2. So while it does not contribute to CO2 emissions that much, it contributes to the greenhouse effect proportionally a lot more.
