1. The development of animal husbandry destroys a lot of rain forests
2. Animal husbandry wastes a lot of water resources
3. Animal manure in animal husbandry causes A lot of pollution (for this point, the use of manure to make fertilizer and organic farming is also mentioned)
4. The argument that milk is rich in nutrients is a commercial conspiracy of animal husbandry, and human beings are not suitable for drinking milk
5. At the end, a solution to backyard farming is proposed The plan, belonging to the family self-sufficiency - this is a beautiful vision, but not realistic - there are inappropriate
points can be pointed out
How reliable and reasonable the data is.
The data comes from the literature. The authenticity and reliability of the literature data cannot be investigated. It is tentatively assumed that they are credible. However, the way of citing makes people feel that it lacks fairness.
For example, such an example:
1 hamburger = 3000 liters of water = 1 person's 2-month bathing water consumption
Animal husbandry occupies 1/3 of the fresh water resources on the earth. It takes about 1.7 liters of water to produce 1 kilogram of grain, and 15 liters of water to produce 1 kilogram of beef. The water
required for grain production is not completely wasted, and the water for beef production is not completely wasted. When the ecological effect returns to the ecological circle, the water cycle and carbon cycle are still functioning to maintain the ecological balance. However, once it is excessive, the balance will be broken, which seems to be the problem we are facing now.
The United States is a big meat-eating country, and the American people's meat-based dietary structure is also unhealthy. The formation of this dietary structure in the United States may really be related to the excessive development of animal husbandry. Capital seeks profit, Americans eat more meat, and animal husbandry makes more money.
