Environmental Destruction
Chickens packed into a shed, creating tons and tons of waste.
Sheep grazing, causing erosion across much of the US.
The effects of grazing.
The rainforest is being cut down at an alarming rate to create room to graze cattle for export to the US.  We are running out of room and it costs a few cents less to raise cattle there.  If everyone in the US ate 50% less beef, there would be no need to cut down the rainforest.
Our rivers, lakes and oceans are becomming increasingly polluted.  Animals agriculture causes massive amounts of pollution, which has its effects on other animals as well.
