It doesn't really affect our environment that much if at all. It could ultimately affect the sheep population, which somewhere down the road would affect the environment, but as long as cloned sheep are not the only sheep, there is no impact to the environment.

As far as I know there has been only one cloned sheep and it died two or more years ago, quite young. So the answer is no more than any other sheep while it was alive and no more than any other dead sheep now it's dead. The effect is effectively zero.

well the most obvious concern here is that if a fatal disease came along then this monoculture of sheep would all be essentially identically susceptible to the disease.
This would mean no wooly jumpers!

Well you wouldn't want 2 the same would you?
