Food and agriculture have a significant impact on our planet, particularly in terms of carbon emissions, water withdrawals, and land use.

    It would seem this entire discussion stems from your misunderstanding of my initial comment.

    I pointed out that there are other industries that have a much greater environmental impact and you got butthurt about it. I wanted to help you understand that other industries (e.g. oil/transport) have a much greater impact, which it looks like I’ve accomplished. I’m glad I could help you see the bigger picture, but you might want to check your own reading comprehension before throwing a tantrum in the future.

      Yes, because you started with a criticism of this infographic for an assumption it did not make - it did not claim agriculture is the biggest impact.

      However, agriculture is the biggest individual impact, unless you’re in a position to bankrupt Shell, or something. I kinda doubt that’s the case though.

      Finally, there are more impacts in the environment than simple carbon emissions - and if we add that in, things get even worse.

      But you do you - downvote, reply as if anything you’ve just written makes any sense, go nuts. At the end of the day, you’re happy with the “oh no, individual action is irrelevant, big companies are the culprits so I can keep my habits and feel no guilt” so now you must defend this position.
