@beau22984@MoundLore 99% of animal products come from the most efficient method of raising animals, factory farms. If these animals were pasture raised its impact would be even worse.
@ThePloughCo@MoundLore Only 4% of animals are pasture-raised. Grass-fed is often just monocultured grass, and scaling pasture systems to current demand is mathematically impossible. It requires more land, water, and feed, appearing green only because it's rare. At scale, it's an eco-disaster.
@MoundLore 75% less crop land used if consuming a plant based diet.
55 billion animals killed for food.
7.3 billion animals are killed during crop harvesting.
70% of grain used to feed animals.
75% of soy used to feed animals.
@PatrickHeizer Its not a solution if it's not sustainable. Wildlife is on the brink of extinction, and would be totally extinct in an incredibly short period of time if we went that route.
@rozpersian Good question, but a drop in the bucket. Animal agriculture is the primary driver of global deforestation, responsible for approximately 80% of total forest loss.
@TheChefsGardens@KennyTorrella Transportation accounts for only 11% of the carbon footprint of food with 83% attributable to production...

@Alexleaf@StrengthbyMike If you cant eat an apple without spiking your blood glucose they haven't reversed diabetes.
It's akin to treating a sports injury by never working out again. Sure, you might not be hurting, but why not address the root cause so you can actually workout (eat carbs) again?
@drjenunwin@MohammedAlo@StevenQuartz Noncalcified plaque directly associated with the risk of fatal cardiovascular events. Its less stable and more likely to rupture. It is the soft kind that’s more likely to kill you.
@paulsaladinomd@DrNadolsky@ManOnThePen Bro, there’s a laundry list of your 🤡 behavior and bottom-tier takes. From telling people broccoli is "toxic" and sunscreen is a scam, to ignoring the clear link between ApoB and heart disease, you’re basically a one-man misinformation circus.
