Yes and yes
As a workstation support person, this makes me sad, angry, and happily hysterical at the same time.
I think both can be good depending on where you are in life, it's one of those grass is always greener concepts.
The problem is that she has made many donations to campaigns of those in charge of her confirmation hearing.
properly can actually be very great for land rejuvenation and crop rotation, as well as feed more people per pound then veg/fruits alone.
Now say the world ran on a 70% veggie 30% dairy and meat diet, this could createa a more harmonious sutainability, livestock when grown 1/2
making it useless for growing. Again this is using our current technology (minus GMOs of course). Crop rotation can only get us so far. 5/5
to keep up, since instead of giving farming land "breaks" to renew we would forcing every nutrient we could of the soil, eventually 4/5
losing all nutrients. Now if the world moved to all vegan, viable land for vegetables and fruit to feed 6 bil would become very tough 4/5
impact, growing itself does create soil erosion, hence sustainable techniques rely on land change up to keep soil from eroding or 3/4
Cultivating perennials like hay, but not very good for fruit or vegetables. Also while produciton of fruits and vegetables have a low 2/3
When demand rises so high that land cultivation becomes an issue. A lot of land on the earth is better for animal grazing and for 1/2
Sums up the argument well: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/next/earth/going-vegan-isnt-actually-th/
Until properly tested at scale, we are all stating opinions and theories While this doesn't go into to as much detail as I would like it 1/2
I want, no need one of those
Which is something that can't be easily remedied especially when going to an all vegan diet
At the end of the day the issue we are facing is an explosive population growth which has led us to our current food production issues
potentially create a sustainable diet for the entire global population 4/4
situation as meat production right now. If specialization in all fod production was created in all parts of the world, we could 3/4
essential vegetables and fruits, on top of the need to produce the supplements to round out the vegan diet, we would end up in same 2/3
At large scale aka feeding the entire global population sustainability would become an issue since not every climate can grow certain 1/2
If you read in of my other comments in this thread you would see I understand, and I believe in a change for sustainable ways for production
Yeah it's a pain in the ass trying to state full thoughts in 140 characters or less lol
Hay, grass, sawdust (mixed with other nutrients), they can pretty much live on any cellulose based feed. 2/2
That's why I'm talking about reducing the amount of meat produced but at the same time using more sustainable methods to produce. ex 1/2
If only 15% percent of the world ate meat, It would be really easy to make that production sustainable as well 2/2
Yes but if you increase demand from 15% vegan to say 85 % began, using less doesn't necessarily mean it would still be sustainable. 1/2
Barely 30% are actually vegan and india. I agree with the cow being more of a delicacy, what do you mean by holy?
Lower consumption, by making more alternatives widely avaiable. but I believe a vegan diet is only sustainable because it's a niche for now
