RE: Is It Ethical To Eat Meat?

in #life7 years ago

Except it takes more grain to feed the animal we eat than if we ate the grain we fed the animal and that most of the amazon deforestation has happen because of the grain agriculture needed to feed the animal we eat.

Livestock now use 30 percent of the earth’s entire land surface, mostly permanent pasture but also including 33 percent of the global arable land used to producing feed for livestock, the report notes. As forests are cleared to create new pastures, it is a major driver of deforestation, especially in Latin America where, for example, some 70 percent of former forests in the Amazon have been turned over to grazing.

This has nothing to do between you and me. Saladin and Savory have been rebutted for obvious reasons.

Since the only thing I said about grain is to stop using it, I don't know what you are talking about. You might not be considering the benefits of a diverse pasture land.

Saladin and Savory are still producing verifiable results so I guess someone needs to step up the rebutting. They better hurry because thousands of other folks are duplicating the results on their own lands.

It take some land for grazing but the land is already taken to the point we have to deforest large part of tropical forest.

If that were true, that would be a good point.

Good news! It is true! :D

Sad news, it's true!
