I hate seeing that daft vegan myth trotted out for this sort of thing. A lot of livestock eats grass that we can't. Grass that is watered by rain that would otherwise simply flow down the rivers and into the sea, and often grows in places that are not suitable for any other form of farming.
The truth is that if we all went vegan there simply wouldn't be enough arable land to produce the food we'd need.
the truth is that the main cattle feed is soy and other simple crops, not grass. only cartoon cows eat grass. so all of the deforestation and water used to grow that soy is wasted on feeding the cattle, when you could just feed that soy to people. and if you did that, you could eliminate world hunger, because theres so much fricken soy being grown for just feeding livestock. look it up. youre saving thousands of gallons of water a day by not eating meat
