Monbiot tells us that he himself did not manage to follow a strict vegan diet, but he notes:

"The Food and Agriculture Organisation calculates that animal keeping is responsible for 18% of greenhouse gas emissions. The environmental impacts are especially grave in places where livestock graze freely. The only reasonable answer to the question of how much meat we should eat is as little as possible. Let's reserve it - as most societies have done until recently - for special occasions."

Humans, or more accurately called bipedal primates, of which there are now 6.6 billion of them on Earth and another 3 billion expected in the next few years, are from the animal family.

I suggest we stop raising so many humans...
