Animal agriculture industry causes incredible harm long term.

For example a leaking natural gas well in southern California vented almost 100,000 tonnes of methane into the atmosphere before it was plugged.

This is not even close to the amount of methane that cows of this world fart over a time period of a year (72-92 million metric tonnes (1,000,000 * 72|92)). Methane is 80 times more potent than CO2 when it comes to global warming.

Now, would you demand corporate death of Tyson Foods (biggest polluter of water in USA)?

Would you demand corporate death of American animal agriculture?

I believe not.

I mean, Brazil cuts 91% of Amazon rainforest just for the use of soybean and cattle production. This will have extreme long-term consequences. Animal agriculture causes 90%+ species extinction events.

Overfishing disturbs the ecosystems so much that by 2048 oceans will be dead. Already, the ocean dead zones are caused mostly by animal agriculture drains.

This is just some oil/industries that use oil shaky attitude.

The biggest polluter of all is animal agriculture.
