We need to eat them because...

Some similiar arguments why we would need to eat animals...

"But we need to eat the cows, because they are causing global warming. If we don't eat them, we'll be overrun with them."

Same as :    Meat eaters get rid of methane-producing animals while vegetarians destroy oxygen-producing plants.".....therefore meat-eating is better for the environment than vegetarianism.

Oh how did the earth survive before selfless humans conquered the food chain and fought the big bad, reurgurating animals that burp and fart methan? The world surely would be nonexistent now.

Well, we breed them in unnatural number, don´t eat them, don´t breed them, no overrunning and methane burping and farting.

Animals also need to eat plants to grow...16 pound grains for one pound beef and how much grass do you think dies through pasture raised cows...you evil plant killer!

"If you don't eat them, they die for nothing!"

So you think if no one ate animals, we still would breed 56.000.000.000  animals each year for food and just kill and dump them?

 Maybe those people are just not familiar with the principle of action and reaction?

Buy something, more is produced. Buy nothing, nothing is produced.

"Its impossible to live on native 'insert country' plants"

So we are all living in greenland and the north- and south pole?
And you want to eat only plants that are native to your country?

Ok where are you from?

England, germany, asia? Please drop all the potatoes,tomatoes, sweet pepper, hot pepper, sunflowers, cotton, linnen, cabbage, kale, wheat, oats, beans, corn, apples, bananas, pineapple...

Most of our domestic plants we grow are from all over the planet and most are from africa and america..some are also from the area of arabia/turkey.

So why only native plants, why not plants that grow there?

And you want only native plants, what about native animals? 


Amerika, please drop the horses, cows, sheeps, goats, chicken, geese, ducks and pigs that you are farming, they are all invaders from europe.
