One important point made in this passage is that -----.
Some people believe that meat consumption contributes
to famine and depletes the Earth's natural resources.
Indeed, it is often argued that cows and sheep require
pasturage that could be better used to grow grain for
starving millions in poor countries. Additionally, claims
are made that raising livestock requires more water than
raising plant foods. But both these arguments are
illogical. As for the pasturage argument, this ignores the
fact that a large portion of the Earth's dry land is
unsuited to cultivation. For instance, desert and
mountainous areas are not suitable for cultivation, but
are suitable for animal grazing. However, modern
commercial farming methods prefer to raise animals in
an enclosed space feeding them on grains and
soybeans. Unfortunately the bulk of commercial
livestock is not range-fed but stall-fed. Stall-fed animals
do not ingest grasses and shrubs (like they should), but
are fed an unnatural array of grains and soybeans -
which could be eaten by humans. The argument here,
then, is not that eating meat depletes the Earth's
resources, but that commercial farming methods do.
Such methods subject livestock to deplorable living
conditions where infections, antibiotics, and synthetic
hormones are common. These all lead to an unhealthy
animal and, by extension, to an unhealthy food product.
