PLEASE MARK ME BRAINLIEST

Explanation:

Animal agriculture requires massive amounts of land, food, energy, and water; results in polluted land, water, and air; and causes immense animal suffering. Even the United Nations (U.N.) has acknowledged that raising animals for food is “one of the top two or three most significant contributors to the most serious environmental problems, at every scale from local to global.”

Animals exploited for food in the U.S. alone produce more than 10 times as much excrement as the entire human population of the United States does—and with no animal-sewage processing plants, it’s most often stored in waste “lagoons” or sprayed over fields, polluting the land, air, and water. Globally, animal agriculture is responsible for more greenhouse gases than all the world’s transportation systems combined.

Eating meat also wastes valuable resources. It takes up to 13 pounds of grain and 2,500 gallons of water to produce just a pound of meat. Growing water-intensive crops simply to feed animals who are raised for food consumes more than half the water in the U.S. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, agricultural runoff is the number one source of pollution in our waterways—and it can contaminate groundwater with viruses and bacteria.

Reducing intensive meat production is simply not enough to save the environment. The sheer quantity of animals required to satisfy people’s desire for animal-derived foods makes humane, environmentally responsible practices impossible. For profitability, the meat, egg, and dairy industries crowd the largest number of animals into the smallest space possible, leading to massive water pollution, soil erosion from the massive number of crops needed to feed these animals, and other ecological disasters.
