No, it really isn’t. The “some varmints” number in the millions. That’s not even going into how current crop farming practices reduces natural habitats, exhausts soil, destroys biodiversity, and is responsible for the endangerment of species due to all of the above.

And that’s just farming to keep us fed. If we look into other industries we see that they’re all doing the same as well.

We have to make a massive shift in how we do industry as a whole, because simply not buying a burger doesn’t amount to anything beyond being self-congratulating.
