Red meat requires 28 times more land to produce than pork or chicken, 11 times more water and results in five times more climate-warming emissions. When compared to staples like potatoes, wheat, and rice, the impact of beef per calorie is even more extreme, requiring 160 times more land and producing 11 times more greenhouse gases.

Going vegetarian is not an easy thing but it is a good choice. I'm not saying you have to become a vegetarian but I am suggesting that cutting out meat from your diet for at least once a week can make a difference. When we eat meat, we are eating another animal who has feelings. It's hard to understand how we have no problem killing other animals but if a human is killed it's a big deal. Vegetarianism is a great option or even just cutting out meat is a great option.

I fully agree, while going vegetarian may be very hard for some people, it is very good for the environment. It takes an average of 1800 gallons of water to make one pound of beef which is a huge waste. Just one or two fewer meals a week without meat is not only healthier for you but it will benefit the environment.

I definitely agree with the lifestyle that is vegetarianism, because I am vegetarian and have been for about a year. I notice a relatively big difference in my diet and my carbon footprint from when I wasn't vegetarian. Instead of producing an average of 2,223 kgs of carbon, I produce 1,973 kgs. Even though it may not seem like much, I try to reduce my carbon footprint as much as possible, and being a vegetarian is how I try to contribute to our sustainable society.

I agree. It's my first awareness that red meat production could consume so many sources. And although most people don't want to become a vegetarian, including me, having veggie meals for two or three times a week is a good option. Veggie meals are not only good for the environment and reducing of carbon footprints, it is good for our health, too.(https://www.globalhealingcenter.com/nat … rian-diet/)
