I've heard from a bunch of different sources that most land humans use for farming is specifically for animal agriculture and that if everyone went vegetarian, something like 20% of the land would be required.

I'm hoping that if lab grown meat takes off and becomes affordable for your average person, we might be able to give back some of the land that was de-forested for animal agriculture back to nature.

I'd love to see this too but I think its expecting too much of human nature. its 2024 and we have problems with people capturing bears for their bile. a substance that can be trivially produced in a lab for pennies. People as a whole dont' care about nature unless they are educated about it.

I mean, you'd be surprised how many people give me looks when I buy something and refuse the bag. "but its free."
