I should point out that pastureland and housing tracts probably have the same CO2 consumption, as most people tend to plants trees & bushes in addition to the grass, and people produce less methane than cows/sheep.
I believe this particular tract was at least partially open--remember, 100 years ago this area was all farmland, barring the swamps. It's the blind corner that's most of the problem.
