Cannot eat. If you would just produce just vegan food, you're on average you produce 4kg of biomass per kilogram of. But if you feed livestock you have inaddition area lot of nutrients you can have, you can utilize its feet. And if you sum this up just by keeping the circularity of this 4 kilogram of non edible biomass you almost double. The gain of nutrients from a certain area of agricultural area so livestock is a win win.

People always like to see and focus on a detail instead of the whole picture. Of course it's easy, but as well it's often a wrong approach. So it's easy to see how many emissions come from livestock rearing instead of taking into consideration how much land they preserve in green and how much bad emission this subtract. It's easy to say that electric cars do not emitt GHGs instead of considering what is the cost of extracting, producing and managing exhaust batteries or the emission of particulate coming from harder consumption of tires due to heavier vehicles. Every production is connected to another and it is not possible nor convenient to manage one without affecting another. Think the whole picture, think circular.
