    Sustainable, and regenerative farming for the food supply is a cause I can get behind.

    Locally sourced food is good for food independence and famine resistance. I’m on board.

    I found this talk on sustainable ruminant agriculture fascination https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRmwobXCc4c

    One of the biggest things we could change, is moving away from grain fed animals. Which frees up the fields making the grain, the fertilizer for the grain… get the animals back to eating pasture/grass. A cow can produce 5kg of mild solids (protein!!!) per day, just eating grass (which no human can eat anyway)… Animals eating their natural diet are much more sustainable for the planet.

          In this sense:

          militant (adjective): combative and aggressive in support of a political or social cause, and typically favoring extreme, violent, or confrontational methods

            True, but they only expressed their dislike of meat in terms of sustainability.

            It is possible to be healthy while vegan, about 20% of India is vegetarian. So 200m people. I’m sure some of them are doing ok.

            I think, however, it’s very difficult to do. Saying nobody should eat meat is a undefendable position (how many vegans have cats? Cats are obligate carnivores)
