    Killing animals is inevitable regardless of diet. Your plant based diet requires growing crops, but tilling soil and harvesting plants kills millions or billions of invertebrates. They are so small that they escape everyone’s attention, yet they are still animals killed to make your food.

    Are you a concern troll or do just don’t know that we could reduce with a plant based diet the land use, the tiling of soil and the killing of those billions invertebrates? The intentional killing of 90 billion land animals and trillions of fish aside

      Sure, you could reduce land use for farm raised animals.

      But I’m not talking about eating those, I’m talking about eating wild caught animals. Unlike vegetables, wild caught animals require no land use at all.

        Alright, abolish animal farming then. All wild animals in the world would last less than 2 months. We don’t have to kill others.

          Animal farming isn’t going to be abolished in my lifetime. And I can’t make decisions for everyone.

          So the relevant question is what I should do, personally, to reduce my personal impact. A purely vegan diet is not the answer.
