More than three-quarters of global agricultural land is used for livestock, despite meat and dairy making up a much smaller share of the world’s protein and calories.
[…] However, only half of the world’s croplands are used to grow crops that are consumed by humans directly. We use a lot of land to grow crops for biofuels and other industrial products, and an even bigger share is used to feed livestock.
I see, 25% is still not too little, I expected this to be less than 10% based on how you phrased the first comment. But you’re right, it’s possible to greatly reduce strain on land

That wasn’t me, but I found out about it relatively recently and I’m happy to share it.
Oh, true, sorry I’m a bit sloppy
Thanks for sharing, anyway ❤️
No worries :)
