If we weren't 'wasting space' to grow food for livestock, we could be

Wrong.


I'm afraid not mate.


The problem is the inefficient use of land for subsistence farming.


That is *another* problem yes, but not to be conflated with the waste
of resources (land, feed, water) and the pollution involved in keeping
more livestock than people on the same small rock.


Subsistence farming *is* a waste of resources.

Where they do, moving to a plant based solution is the only way
