Compared to actual meat or compared to beans and mushrooms?

[–] KaleDaddy@beehaw.org 17 points 11 months ago

I mean literally every other food source is more environmentally friendly than meat. Animal agriculture is the number one cause of environmental destruction. Its absurdly inefficient as a food source. Hence why its the number one cause of deforestation and also why almost all food farmed in the world just goes to feeding livestock
