Haven't you heard the argument that livestock raising releases methane/CO2 etc?

  The argument? It's not an argument - livestock does produce CO2. It is a fact. I don't eat meat partially for this reason. I still have no idea what it means with regards to your original statement.

    Haha, seems like OP randomly chose the wrong argument from the wrong pamphlet. Yes, livestock produces CO2. The part about it feeding on grass is a typical argument against purely plant diet, based on the assumption that if we stop eating meat we'll starve, because we cannot produce enough plant-based food, and meat production helps, because we can turn otherwise useless plants (grass), growing on otherwise useless land, into something we can eat.

      > because we cannot produce enough plant-based food, Livestock eat more plant based food that we will ever need though, it's the most inefficient food production for a reason.
