Having said that, all these processes of food production do produce massive amounts of environmental pollution, create massive suffering of the animals farmed in these modern cruel ways, and that people are over consuming all food types and especially meat products through gluttony in the western world, and that we should all indeed do everything we possibly can to reduce our animal product intake at all times, which indeed goes to the same vegan concept of this article. And with this, I agree in the promotion of more veganism in the daily lives of all, for health, wellbeing, a cleaner environment, and a reduction in animal cruelty.

Sorry for the delay in writing back. I had not thought of the “Predator” issue. It could be that since a great deal (majority?) of cattle are raised for human consumption, that lower consumption would lower cattle population. At least that seems to be the logic of the original author.

For me this falls in my most frustrating category of Double-Standards. When people advocate a position and try to attach moral certainty to the issue but hold themselves or another issue to a different standard.

Thanks for your insight. Blessings!

Can domesticated livestocks even exist without human assistance to do so? And, if not, then aren’t you also advocating the extinction of our own genetic diversity?

If the elimination of all: Cows, Buffalo, Oxen, Reindeer, Sheep, Goats, etc…. – is a good thing… then why don’t we go ahead and kill all of the other predators too… after all, they must also contribute to The CO2 Supply?

How far do we go down that road… to its inevitable conclusion?
