@BlueGreenGrey well for at least one thing, how much do you know about the overuse of monoculture environments?
@stound I know the difference between monoculture, permaculture, et al.
The absence of animal agriculture does not automatically mean monocultural plant agriculture
You can also have biodiversity without animal agriculture
Moreover, the negative impacts of cattle ranching today are in no way offsetting anything with regard to, say, monocultural wheat fields or monocultural vineyards or monocultural paper pulp tree plantations
Slashing and burning Amazon rain forest to create more cattle ranches is not somehow [i]helping[/i] the enviroment or climate, it is doing the exact opposite, as tropical rainforests are a lot more effective at absorbing carbon than, say, temperate conifers
