doesn’t look like any of them become veal at all in nz.
I don’t know where you got your stats, but according to the fao 17% of the weight of the global soy crop becomes oil, but a soybean is only about 20% oil in total. that means some 85% of the crop is pressed for oil. that byproduct being fed to livestock is a benefit.
soy … destroys ecosystems and rainforests (#2), don’t feed animals, feed people!
the vast majority ( over 80% ) of soy is pressed for oil. the byproduct of that process is called soycake or soy meal, and it would be industrial waste if we didn’t feed it to livestock. that’s a conservation of resources.
Half of the newborns are male and killed for veal, no?
no
they’re brought to full weight and slaughtered, or become dairy cows and produce milk
I’ve looked at the USDA data about veal, and to my recollection it was less than 3% of calves that became veal
NSRXN@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the strangest math that turned out to be useful?9·7 days agoprime number factorization is the basis of assymetric cryptography. basically, if I start with two large prime numbers (DES was 56bit prime numbers iirc), and multiply them, then the only known solution to find the original prime numbers is guess-and-check. modern keys use 4096-bit keys, and there are more prime numbers in that space than there are particles in the universe. using known computation methods, there is no way to find these keys before the heat death of the universe.

so you think vegans eat as much fast food as non vegans
what did say that contradicted this
since vegan fare is pretty limited, i think the first thing is that vegans don’t eat nearly as much fast food. they probably eat out less overall. which is going to require a lifestyle that carves out time at home to cook or meal prep.
