    Yes. Veganism has all sorts of issues. Their way leads to a world with less biodiversity not more. It is also propped up by the industrial times we live in.

    They like to point out that some areas have been vegan for centuries while ignoring the mortality rates those areas had during those times. Famines were common.

    There entire ideology is based on a biased examination of the data and their need to silence anyone that questions their dietary choices is a huge red flag. They and they alone are allowed to question others choices but what this t do isn’t question, because they already think they have the answers so instead their ridicule.

        Yes.

        A wide range of animals only exist because we include them in our food chain. Saving a few samples still reduces the bio diversity.

        A wide range of plants only exist because they are useful for feeding the animals we include in our food chain. There is no reason to grow feed corn if there are no animals to feed it to.

        There is likely second order affects where the biom feeds of these two things and would disappear. This is a bit more hand wavy but we already have evidence that monocrops and pesticides are doing this.

          given habitat destruction, which is attributed (fairly or no) to agriculture, i was hoping you had some data on the number of species that would exist in a vegan world vs nonvegan.
