To be fair almonds, soy and a lot of stuff that we grow is AWFUL for the environment. One of the largest driving forces behind ramping up production of those plants is also veganism. Or more accurately the demand for vegan alternatives.

A lot of the key plants are some of the worse monocrops we have in terms of water use and environmental damage.

The rise of vegan alternative demand has at this point actually made it so that vegan diets are technically worse then a normal one for the environment.

A lot of those plants are also starting to cause huge problems with natural habitats all over the place. Which is rather funny when you consider that one of the main talking points vegans like to bring out is meat is murder. But the rise in inefficient monocropping has killed more animals and habitats then cattle has now.

Its just a massive cluster fuck. Monocropping is killing our land and using our drinking water. Meat is killing our land and using our drinking water. Data center is kill our land and using our drinking water.

Everything is just being scaled to infinitely no thought to actually preventing harm. All of it slowly killing everything around it till there's nothing left.

Its great! Every time a vegan tries to yell at me about eating a nice stake and how I'm killing animals. I just get to point out their diet is murdering natural pollinators all over the place killing habitats and has caused the death of more woodland, creatures, plants, insects and other things than I could ever hope to kill by just eating a nice juicy steak.

Really makes them mad
