JCP, > It's been shown that producing plants for direct human consumption is far more efficient than feeding plants to animals and preparing and eating the animals.

I've already seen the debates back when I was going to college. The people who came up with said "analyses" are the typical Ivory tower pencil pushers who think their theories always work in practice.

There's lots of stuff grown on farms that can never be consumed by humans, or can be but will be just too much for humans to consume. How much alfalfa can you eat, for instance? That's a part of crop rotation, by the way. Or hay? How about all of the corn that you don't see on the supermarket shelves? What do you do with all of that?

How about replacing all of the weed they smoke? I'm sure that has an impact on global warming ...
