The devastation caused by vegan diets is still being figured out but there’s no question that it’s absolutely horrific for the ecosystem as insects are destroyed en masse to serve the needs of the industry.
No one wants to talk about what that does to the web of life depending on it though. It’s buried just like we see with the health impacts of the plant based meats.
Eat food locally grown and limit your meat consumption. Things aren’t as complicated as the media and food industry try to make it seem.

Don’t livestock consume just as much, if not more, plant matter to support the meat industry as humans would? Sort of a diminish caloric returns, since those calories have to support the life of the meat-creature which then has to support the life of the omnivore?
I would think that vegan diets would be a net-benefit in terms of pesticide and fertilizer use, and that plant-based diets would be more sustainable.
But I’m uneducated in this and haven’t done sufficient research.
