What's the meaning of "as"? Does it mean "the time something happens" or just simply means the same as in a comparative phrase?
Producing a gram of beef generates 25 times the volume of greenhouse-gas emissions **as** producing a gram of tofu.

The reason that we know it's a comparison is that if it referred to simultaneity, it would be followed by a *clause* (including a subject and conjugated verb), not by a noun or gerund phrase.
