    Any argument you have against farming crops, will quadruple against meat.

    70% of all the crops we grow goes straight to our livestock.

    Meaning, for something that takes up 1/3 of your plate, we use more than double the amount of resources of the other 2/3 of the same plate.

    And then we haven’t even gave the animals water to drink on top of it.
