The petroleum issue is a biggie. But, a huge amount goes into the farming of feed for the cows.
As far as I can see in either direction is corn. All to feed cows crammed into one of the many feedlots out here. The feedlots put out unhealthy fumes, which actually killed a family out here. On one of the farms a farmer died when a drain clogged. The wife tried to drag him away and she died. The daughter found them and also died before she could move either of them.
The animal farming issue would make a huge dent in the petroleum industry. A side effect would be a surplus of land for actual firsthand food rather than secondhand(getting nutrients by eating something that ate those nutrients)
It does not take much land or effort to grow food that goes straight to the mouth. It takes a lot more land and effort to grow enough food for the animals in order to eat them. Why so much effort?
