    TBF land clearance for grazing land is a catastrophic issue for the environment and going on in places like the Amazon rainforest.

    Some ecosystems are naturally evolved to supporting grazing species like the grasslands of North America which was once home to millions of Buffallo but that’s not true of most land currently used for grazing.

      absolutely. I have some ideas about what to do about it, but none of them involve buying beans

        It’s at a point where I’m all for a UN resolution to end land clearance in locations like the Amazon Rainforest, to be enforced by lethal means if necessary.

        Billions of lives may depend on securing such important ecosystems.
