How is raising meat not a waste of resources?
>muh bacon
>>72062942
Blow me. Eating meat is what separates us from the animals commie
great sources
>>72062942
My sheep eat grass, not trees from the rainforest.
>>72062942
what about methane - 25~50 times high GWP than Co2 - OP?
>>72063112
Nice argument! I like how you made no attempt to answer the question and then moved the goalpost to talk about communism. You sir are a real intellectual.

Meat is very calorie dense and provides a better source of protein and fat than many other foods. It also tastes very good.
What if we just ate other humans?
>>72062942
Plants grow back after some animals eats their leaves
>>72062942
How does meat kill rainforest?
>>72062942
Grass-fed animals are pretty great.
They turn land otherwise worthless into sources of tasty food.
>>72063327
feeding starving africans, asians, middle easterners and whites is a massive waste of resources but don't mention it otherwise you'll trigger the bleeding heart liberals.
shitposting on the internet is a massive waste of resources but yet here you are being a giant faggot.
>>72062942
How did the rainforest get damaged by me buying beef from a rancher twenty miles from my house? We buy a quarter of a cow every year from the same guy and he doesn't live in the rainforest.
>>72063417
Prion diseases.
>>72063520
South Americans like to cut back rainforest so they can raise cheap beef on the land they cleared out.
Of course, this graphic ignores the fact that most beef doesn't just come from SA.
>>72062942
And the animal produces far more than just meat.
>Broken analogy is broken.
>>72062942
water is only scarce in desert lands that had no business raising farms in the first place
most beef farms are in plains so i don't where the rainforest shit comes from
grain isn't scarce either
and that's not a lot of CO2
>>72063343
The Texas rainforests are being destroyed. We must save the Texas rainforests.
>>72062942
Retards logic
>Instead of trying to fix the problems caused by eating meat, lets just slowly die by being vegans as the lack of B12 makes us demented
>rainforest
uhhh
what
>>72063580
Oh man, I wish I had your neighbors.
What state do you live in? My cousins own a cattle ranch up in Montana.
Only thing better than beef is the elk they'd shoot and smoke during the season.
>>72062942
The only reason its a waste of resources is that there are too many humans consuming everything.
>>72063580
yeah, but what do you think cows eat? imported rainforest fodder. fkn idiot. do you even ecosystem?
I raise my own crops and livestock to eat. I have 15 cows. How can I keep them from destroying the rainforest? I have good fencing but I want to be sure they're not leaving at night to bulldoze the amazons.
>>72063727
B12 aside, three out of the four problems are eliminated if we eat grass-fed beef.
And the fourth one could be resolved if vegan faggots would quit bitching and plant some goddamn trees or sumthin'.
>>72062942
You get meat, that's how.
>>72063112
the animals also eat meat you fucknugget
>>72063800
imported raidnforest fodder?
dude, fodder is just fucking grass, cattle farms grow the grass the cows eat right there.
>>72063112
>Eating meat is what separates us from the animals
You're right animals don't eat meat
>>72064000
Fish also take the bait, you dumbass.
and yet a Mcdouble costs 1.29
>>72062942
by that logic shouldn't we be slaughtering wild animals en masse in order to reduce their environmental impact?
>>72064000
what? nah, human were the first animals to eat meat it's where the Adam & Eve parable comes from and why humans are the first people to know evil
>>72064052
>implying native american grass are growing in winters or in the deserts
imported rainforest fodder is the only answer. all cattle doesnt live in miami or california
>>72062942
why do you faggots think that water disappears when it is consumed?
>>72064320
What are you on about? While I'm willing to believe grass won't grow in the winter where you live; in my State we have cool-season grass that can grow most of the winter.
And even then, everyone here uses baled hay (which is just rolled up alfafa and grass from the summer) to feed their livestock. The big "factory farms" that do use fodder wouldn't even bother importing anything- they just use their shitty GMO Corn and Soy.
>>72062942
Nice b8 m8 8/8 people that don't eat meat can be put into the same pit as Homos, Vegans, Vegos and Trannys.
>>72064697
holy fuck you burgers are dumb. what are the main ingredients in shitty gmo corn and soy?

>>72063760
No the actual reason is that the price of meat is actually severely under priced and overproduced. These huge super corporations are doing everything in their power through lobbying, lawsuits, secrecy and media propaganda to avoid taking any sort of responsibility or fault for fucking up with the environment, people (health) or energy. .
While people are told to conserve water they pay barely anything from the water they consume not to mention the huge amounts of energy and oil you need to keep the production going.
"Food, Inc." and "Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret" are pretty good documentaries about the subject, latter however has some vegan mumbo jumbo in it so the former is better.
>>72062942
Fuck off commie
>>72066390
Bread. And ethanol
Isn't posting to /pol/ a waste of resources?
72066438
you don't get one cunt
How is it a waste of resources? Marginal utility in a market economy dictates that those resources are most effectively used raising cattle.
Fuck of you dirty commie.
>>72062942
>Water
Returns to earth as cow piss
>Rain forest
Not true Cows Graze grass. And they do not damage the roots underneath, so the grass will grow back (Unlike goats that tear the roots apart)
>Grain
IT WILL GROW BACK
>CO2
Toppest of keks
First off America has extremely clean coal and power plants. The image used is water vapor from the heated water WHICH ALSO RETURNS TO EARTH.
Also CO2 if you have forgotten is what plants breath. Plants can be grown in underground bunkers with enough CO2 and little to no real sunlight(And in some cases can be grown larger than normal plants).
Lastly I am eating Pasta with beef meatballs right now and I wouldn't give this up for the world

Exactly. They don't take in enough protein to develop large brains and higher brain function. Ironically vegetarians like to leverage the brain power their ancestors earned them to be proud of their devolutionary ways.
>>72066888
Oh shit
>>72066881
You can also mention that humans release 0.06% of total green house gases in the form of CO2. It is literally unmeasurable the impact that humans have on the greenhouse effect.

I have 10 cows and 5 hogs. The cows just prevent me from mowing the pasture and my hogs eat all the scraps from the rest of my farm. The whole bullshit about animals taking a ton of resources is stupid and shilljew tactics. I don't use anti biotics or hormones and only use grass that I'd have to cut anyways. The water is mainly rain collection and stream water that I own rights to.
Don't fall from the muh animals use too many resources meme.
>>72062942
the waste of resources is allowing nonwhites to exist.
>>72063755
I'm in Georgia. It's not really even my neighbor. I live in the middle of Atlanta but one of my co-workers mentioned he bought a side of beef each year from a farmer he knew. I didn't need an entire side but a quarter was enough for my needs.
I raise cows. I grow my feed and get my water from a well I dug myself. Tell me again how I'm destroying the environment.
>>72067771
their only argument is giant dairies that go through tons of water daily.
but that's what you get when faggots like the EPA and FDA stick their noses into everything.
How much does it cost to keep 100+ lbs of non-contributing human alive?
>>72062942
It's definitely a waste from an efficiency standpoint, but people are willing to make that trade-off b/c they like meat.
>>72062942
Because meat contains biological resources you can't easily get from plants, and the digestion of meat is more efficient than the digestion of plants.

Don't libs pretend CO2 is bad? Wouldn't it be a good thing that 1lb of meat=80kg CO2? They need to make up their minds.
