More than a third of the grains produced by monocropping is used for animal feed. Beef is probably the worst kind of meat in terms of environmental impact.
Suggesting red meat is a more sustainable alternative is disingenous.

Can society live without cars? Probably. We did before.
Will it be an interesting and convenient future? Probably not.
But we have alternatives (electric cars)! And we keep looking for more ways to propel. We don’t stop looking for solutions, just because gas is bad.
Same for beef. We have sustainable alternatives. Just vote with your dollar. Don’t buy factory meat. And help subsidize further research.
Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water!
I was a vegan for more that 2 years, but also ruined my health including my teeth.
When hearing from other ex-vegans, it's mind-blowing how many things we have in common regarding our health. When active in the movement, no one would talk about the problems.
One of your arguments against red meat is that it's devastating to the environment. You know what is also devastating to the environment? having children. It's not a necessity to have children, I have none.
Why is your need for breeding more acceptable than my need for eating red meat?
I believe beef provides superior, and evolutionary-compatible nutrition for my body. And lack of that nutrition will have a negative effect on my health, and thus associated costs with it. Maybe not tomorrow, but in 10 or 20 years.
I’ve been both a vegan for 2 years and pure carnivore for 8 weeks. I’m eating everything at the moment. But I have my own conclusions what works for me.
You can believe and eat whatever you like. But if you make disingenous faith based arguments in a public forum, expect to be called out.
