40% of worldwide grain production is used for animal feed. The calories obtained from eating the animal ~10% of what is used to feed the animal. We could fully replace meat, calorically, and free up more than a third of the land worldwide that is used for agriculture.
I’m not even vegan, but there is undeniably less environmental footprint to eating more plants and less meat.
The quality of everything has decreased over the past decade. Deregulation and the use of crises to shadow egregious profit-seeking will do that.
