Going vegan is missing the point. There are too many people on this planet, period. Im not going to eat an unhealthy diet just so we can squeeze 3 billion more consumers into the economy. We need reproductive freedom and education in any countries that are above replacement rate.

- ben_w 7y agoThe UK currently produces about 60% of its own food requirements (60% of 66 million ≈ 40 million), however I’ve seen it reported that switching everyone in the UK to a vegan diet would increase that to supporting about 200 million people. That doesn’t mean it would be easy — I am a motivated to become vegan and still failing. If I extrapolate that to the rest of the planet, the world should be able to support around 38.5 billion.
