    Yeah, I think the total land used for cattle equals the entire landmass of north america too.

    I love beef, I love hamburgers, but it’s pretty clearly unsustainable.

    I suspect beef prices are only going to go up and they’ll never come down ever again.

          that map uses flawed methodology

          it counts almost all crop land as feed land

          most crops are grown for human food oil fiber or fuel

          the parts fed to animals are just secondary co products

          feeding residual meal and pulp to livestock avoids waste
