    There’s a lot of the world where we wouldn’t need to grow food if we didn’t waste so much land on growing animal feed. That’s why I brought up animal feed. We would need a hell of a lot less fertilizer if we stopped growing alfalfa in the desert etc. etc.

    There are vegans who are against beekeeping. They don’t want bees living in artificial hives where they get gassed and their honey stolen and their limbs torn off etc. etc. No one is against bees just being allowed to live on a farm, side-by-side with us. That’s just nature! As long as beekeepers aren’t hurting the bees or stealing from them or invading their homes, it’s vegan.

    Veganism is against animal exploitation. If bees just live in peace somewhere and pollinate the crops, no one is exploited.
