Yes it is - but the point of the story seemed to be eating LESS meat in order to be healthy (wrong), and to save the planet/stop global warming.

And just from the first few lines of the article, it sounds like they thought they had come up with the perfect solution for ALL of that: eat cheese instead of meat!


Meanwhile, if they're cutting down on meat/giving up meat altogether that means they're turning to more produce and grains.

But the demand for more organically grown produce and grains increases. That means no chemically produced fertilizers on the increasing amounts of organically grown grains and produce.

But wait - where does organic fertilizer come from? Animal manure - something which will be in very short supply if meat production is minimized or halted. (unless they're good with the idea of the organic fertilizer being sourced from the sewage in municipal waste treatment plants... yeah, didn't think so!)

It boggles the mind sometimes the complete disconnect so many people have with the actual source of their food and what's required to produce it from the agricultural level.
