@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal Calories are a flawed metric. The protein count from small 'bulk' is actually good. As for farming land, there is HUGE difference between crop land & livestock because the latter RANGE ie share land with biodiversity. So look at each of these. Serbia, it is most evident: the

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal world's oldest known use of wool garments, at least 7k yrs ago, and still the highest inventory bears wolves bats etc in Europe; that extends through Balkans & Turkey, high sheep numbers (44 mill latter) & high forest (36% Serbia 57% some areas N Turkey). So no deforestation

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal to speak of over considerable millenia yet livestock farming economic/cultural base. Then similarly we know pastoral herders active Kenya 5k yrs ago. Elephant pop robust all that time, yet now threatened by AVOCADOS. Then you have much livestock lands NOT SUITABLE for crops at

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal scale, be they mountain, desert steppe. So Mongolia/Kazak & Namibia egs given steppe & desert. So livestock based culture/economy yet Mongolia & Kazak borders highest wolf pop in world, and Namibia highest cheetah pop & rising. By contrast, Serbia's north has become industrial

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal crop land, and note the bear & wolf absence now. So probably good that Naimbia & Mongolia/Kazak not suitable for crops! Anyway not all land is the same so global inventory of land use is STUPID multi levels. So even Texas for eg which if you have ever seen

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal a western movie you'll know cattle range across huge areas much scrub, semi arid down near Mexico, & grassland, not suitable for crops & that grassland home to fabulous biodiversity so again just as well. So eg look how Kansas no 1 crop state USA cougar are extinct, while Texas

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal have healthy population. Grasslands home also to black footed ferrets & pronghorn, etc rare elsewhere due to loss of grasslands esp to crops. And before you say crops are for cattle feed well actually that's not exactly true: they

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal eat the waste which is considerable. THINK of the cost of popcorn v livestock feed then consider what cattle are actually being fed on feedlots, which incidentally they are on at the last month or two only of their lives generally. The feed is the WASTE of corn; the primary

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal motivation is popcorn corn on cob canned sweetcorn and biofuel. They eat the WASTE husks or inferior product generally. This too applies to most crop feed as outlined by the FAO study last year. So how about Brazil? Is it their cattle the problem?

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal NO. 90% of their cattle are existing pasture fed, and while historically there was deforestation in the 1970s, not so much now. Cattle go in to level & fertilize areas after clearance that will be crops - so misleading

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal to claim otherwise etc: its land speculation usually for crops, & logging initially.

BUT soya for feed is a problem, but it is WHO is buying that feed is what the problem ACTUALLY is. It is China , whose industrialization

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal has come at VAST loss of THEIR OWN grasslands (equiv of area size of rural Wales annually) and crop lands. And for WHAT? Another kind of Amazon are among the MANY global corporates who have become immensely wealthy & powerful through this mass production of tat that before 40 yrs

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal ago we did not need, come at enormous loss of China's ag lands so it has to import the soya for feed for high rise pigs. Look at that chart I cited earlier it's NOT for cattle & sheep pets eat as much. But it also comes at cost of

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal MASSIVE emissions, both inbuilt obsoletion tech and synthetic clothing in particular, requiring constant production consumption, and USING FOSSIL FUELS at that. What is shocking, is that scientists and media should KNOW this even if you don't, so seriously WTF is going on that

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal this hasn't been highlighted as the entire cause of the problems? Well, it's because of who FUNDS the science. So take Wellcome for eg, and look at their portfolio. Chinese JD, Ali Baba, & Amazon among the highest stocks, and Wellcome

They in association with Sainsbury embarked on

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal this massive 'science' funding several years ago, entirely profit driven: what you think fossil fuel industry, mass corporate consumer tat, and global corporate food suddenly driven by ETHICS? They funded EATLancet which is a JOKE & other pseudoscientific institutional push. Then

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal of course there's #BILLGATES. Whose greed & megalomaniac control agendas are evident, massive influence in academia media & politics, and again ethics have NOTHING to do with what he's up to.

Then there are other players in the WEF attempt to

@bartharris @m1ssberyl @Demonriceball2 @Evsthetractor @B19913229 @luxoriaaa @unarose7 @BigIssue @RebelsAnimal impose Global Corporatist control (Corporatism being economic governance basis of Fascism) such as Grantham and YARA.
