Hehehe You can do it with plant-based milk too, don't worry.

For babies, not for adults. Adult animals in most species can't even drink milk, they can't digest it anymore past infancy. Biologically this means that the infant would release the mother so that they could have another child, so

Pretty true. For example, some of the worst applications I have ever used are by far timesheet applications. It's a product with a completely captive audience, that cannot go to the competition. If you don't fill your timesheet, y

You mean B12? This is produced by bacteria in the dust. It gets injected to animals in factory farms, that's why they have it in that environment. We can also take the supplement directly.

It's a myth you get more than enough protein on a plant-based diet. I hear that those numbers are bloated and that most people would do fine with 30 to 40g. Soy would give all the protein you need and then some. Eat soy, lentils, beans

Meat is also shipped across the world a lot, like every other food. So the impact of transportation adds up to the impact of production, which is huge. It's precisely because feeding humans is so resource-intensive that we should not w

I mean come on, a diet of 100% tomatoes does not make any sense, right? The bulk of human calories on a whole food plant based diet comes typically from beans, legumes chickpeas, soy, root vegetables like potatoes and sweet potatoes, starch

Well then lets no plant Barley to feed humans, let's use something else. The thing is a good portion of the surface of the Earth is covered with agricultural fields, most of them aimed at feeding cattle, not humans. It's a bit ins

You're right the water consumption of livestock raising is very important too, besides the huge amount of excrement produced.

As far as I know it's all just beans, they are all eatable by humans. The difference between resource consumption of different types of soy crops, if any, is not comparable to the difference between eating the soy directly or feeding i

To answer your question, it takes a lot more soy beans to feed a cow, that then will digest them and use only part of them, produce waste, consume water. The cow will be slaughtered and only part of the body will be consumed (gut, head, for

Soy crops are a good example, the majority of them are to feed livestock but they are a great crop to feed humans instead, and without all the waste involved in having to feed a cow first and then eat parts of it. You can make plant milk wi
