During my research, the website “The Hill” (2023) states that the meat industry is responsible for 85% of soil erosion, 41% of deforestation, and 80% of Amazon deforestation. The meat industry erodes the soil and removes trees and plants from large patches of land in order to make more room to grow and keep livestock. Although they create more room for animals, they also destroy the homes of other native species, causing them to travel into unknown environments, and some even become extinct. Native animals and livestock numbers are growing and causing tension in the search for food and space (Clark, 2022) (Stand for Trees, 2024).
