Great question, one I don’t have the answer to. But the cows themselves aren’t the issue, it’s deforestation. There is a balance or course.
The cows are the issue though. If people buy beef, it doesn’t come out of the sky. How do you raise an animal without feeding it?

Continuing to support demand for beef at current rates as the population grows means that beef production must increase. That means we need more cows. Where do you propose we put all those cows? The current solution has been to cut down trees to create usable land. What’s your alternative?
