Neither do people who don’t eat vegan, so that’s irrelevant to the point. I couldn’t help notice you skipped over the points of killing animals and accelerating destroying the environment.
- ErroneousBosh 8mo agoYou need livestock farming to have arable farming. Growing only plants is phenomenally destructive to the soil. Every time you eat a "Beyond Meat" burger, you have permanently destroyed a patch of what used to be rain forest and is now crappy farmland about the size of a car parking space.
- latexr 8mo agoYou need far far far more land for raising livestock for eating than for vegetables. Furthermore, we’re discussing vegan diets in general. No one is vegan and survives solely on Beyond Burgers.
- ErroneousBosh 8mo agoYes, but you don't use land you could use for arable crops for raising animals all the time. Also, if you don't turn some of the land you use for arable crops for pasture every few years and chuck some ruminants (cows, preferably, sheep will work too but you need to add lime afterwards) then the soil dies. Do you know how to grow food?
