I skimmed through it, thanks for the link, my “rebuttal” is mostly that this report takes into account all cattle while I’m specifically talking about grass-fed. There are plenty of statements that clarify that corn-fed cattle production is much worse than grass-fed, like
> The water used by the livestock sector is over 8 percent of global human water use. The major part of this water is in fact used for irrigation of feed crops, rep- resenting 7 percent of the global water use.
And, yeah, that’s kind of my point - let’s limit cattle to grass and push it’s production somewhere out to steppes of mongolia or something, which will help recover Amazon rainforests and free-up land for more nutritious vegetables for humans.
