> Virtually all beef produced in the US is initially grass-fed

Now you're just making shit up. :-P

It would be a stretch to claim the mass-production of multi-ton livestock could be a net carbon sink. Even if "adaptive-multi-paddock grazing" could do that, what does this remote hypothetical farming scenario have to do with what you are actually eating?

I would never tell anyone to eliminate meat consumption. Not now, not ever. At the end of the day, people must be accountable to their own conscience. Just don't lie to yourself about where it is coming from and what the impacts are.

Your health misconceptions are a little worrying though. Most Americans consume 2–3X more protein than they should, which plays a significant role in carcinogenesis and explains high cancer rates in the Western world (check out the China Study). A varied diet is not in inconvenience – it's essential. You should probably get bloodwork done (a nutritional panel specifically) if you are living by your misconceptions. Meat is protein-dense but an extremely poor source of vitamins, and deficient in almost every essential nutrient.

sorry to tell you, but again, no. you won't want to hear this as a meat eater. there are many vegan bodybuilders who eat nothing but plants and are absolutely huge. and meat contains casein among other extremely unhealthy elements that lead to heart disease, cancer, etc. this is why both the Mayo clinic and Harvard have issued many warnings over the years against meat consumption.

check out a book by Colin Campbell called The China Study. you can read a lot about Tibetan longevity in that book.

people from Tibet as well as other parts of the world have more longevity because of a reduced intake of meat, red meat in particular (compared to fish or chicken which aren't as bad for the system).
