126. But there are monocrops like soy, wheat, and corn that are devastating to ecosystems.
There are plenty of mega-farms producing the vegetables you eat, unless you eat small and organic. The studies about the impact of meat on the environment refer to factory farms and not the independent farmer. It refers to grain-fed and not naturally grazing animals. Do you know where your tofu, rice, and beans come from? Do you grow them yourself or were they produced locally?
