      I said similar wherever this was what posted earlier, but yeah, even if you replace beef with poultry there’s a considerable difference.

      These types of stories partially led to us switching seat from beef. I’ll still get it at restaurants, but almost never buy beef (or pork) for groceries. Small steps!

      Amazon lost about 44 million hectares to agriculture in 35 years, 86.3% of which became pasture and 13.6% were used for agriculture.

      Dude I see you everywhere. I did hear about a company setting up a lab grown meat factory recently though. Hopefully will help the problem.
