According to your linked studies, if I eat lamb 3 times a day (kosher, high protein) I will have a higher mortality rate than eating shrimp 3 times a day (which is a bottom feeder). Research gives exactly zero support to the particular religiously-specified selection.

"One year without beef saves 3432 trees" - Skeptics Stack Exchange
2016年5月6日 · 45 trees per 55 square feet would leave only 1.22 square feet for each tree, which is obviously silly. However, 45 trees in a square area 55 ft on each side (i.e. 3025 square feet) works out to one tree per 67 square feet, which is well within the range of your estimates.

If we speculate that the 135 dB level is for about 3 meters, Wikipedia has a jet engine at 150 dB at 30 meters (which matches the top end of the 110-140 dB range at 100 meters). Another 5 dB is 3x more less power per unit area, or sqrt(3) ~= 1.7x more distance, so a jet engine at 170 meters is probably roughly comparable to a Moluccan cockatoo ...
Are we in a low CO2 period, compared to the last 590 million years?
