1.5 acres can produce 37,000 pounds of plant-based food. 1.5 acres can produce 375 pounds of meat.
The average American consumes 209 pounds of meat per year. Seemingly the population is growing by day, a person will surely ask more of consumption of red meats which will increase the bad habits of animal domestication.
“Music and symbols, they're older than human race. Prehuman beings used them to teach early mankind.” -Toba Beta

414 billion dollars are spent in animal agriculture in externalized cost, which is a negative affect on military spending's. As the world population continues to grow, (1812: 1 billion; 1912: 1.5 billion; 2012: 7 billion) more animals will be needed to be farmed for food, although 50% of all wheat is being fed to livestock. Currently, the world is maintaining to feed up to 10 billion people and more than 6 million livestock are killed for food every hour.
Worldwide, cows drink 45 billion gallons of water and eat 135 billion pounds of food each day, according to cow-spiracy.

Ten thousand years ago, 99% of biomass ,or the total mass of organisms in an area or volume, was all wild animals, living free in the world. Today, humans and the animals that we raise as food make up 98% of the zoomass and are tamed.

Animal agriculture is responsible for up to 91% of Amazon destruction, which is not in any way helpful to greenhouse gases and oxygen pollution. What does this have to do with animal domestication you ask?
1-2 acres of rain forest are being burned every second to have more space for animal farms.

90-100 million tons of fish are pulled from our oceans each year by over-fishing and in general, marine harm. Many of the marine species are in verge of extinction, including sharks.

Every minute, 7 million pounds of excrement are produced by animals raised for food in the US. A farm with 2,500 dairy cows produces the same amount of waste as a city of 411,000 people. That is a lot of waste to dispose, not to mention the landfills all starting to pile up.

Livestock operations on land have created more than 500 nitrogen flooded deadzones are around the world in our oceans. Nitrogen causes many of the global warming worldwide, although it is not the worst animal domestication can do.

2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce 1 pound of beef.
Although the gallons greatly vary from 442 to 2,500 gallons, that is still a lot, not even including the consumption of 34 to 76 trillion gallons of water annually from agriculture.

“Livestock is responsible for 65% of all human-related emissions of nitrous oxide – a greenhouse gas with 296 times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide, and which stays in the atmosphere for 150 years.”
Many people may think cars and carbon dioxide from the gasoline of cars cause many of the greenhouse gasses, but to speak for the truth, it’s actually the cause of livestock and the factoring of the unnecessary animal domestication.

“Thousands of years ago, humans domesticated every possible large wild mammal species fulfilling all those criteria and worth domesticating, with the result that there have been no valuable additions of domestic animals in recent times, despite the efforts of modern science.”

Less than 20 million dollars are spent in a year for animal care of pigs, cattle, sheep, and such. We are burning 1-2 acres of rain forest each second that provide us fresh oxygen to just slaughter more of these soft creatures. We need to all focus on what is actually causing all the problems here, and help them deserve for what is right.
