- people would have nutritional deficits

- methane production would only drop by a max of 32% due to farming

- rice alone already emits 12% of world methane, this would increase

- only 15% of co2 comes from farming.

- 45% of the co2 from farming is plants. This would increase.

So it wouldn’t do anything.

> people would have nutritional deficits

Follow traditional cuisines that have worked out healthy vegetarianism. Don't buy fake meats.

> methane production would only drop by a max of 32%

Only? If I cut your salary by 32% would you say it isn't much of a drop?

> rice alone already emits 12% of world methane, this would increase

And would be more than offset by the methane emitted by cattle.

> 45% of the co2 from farming is plants. This would increase.

Why? Feeding people plants takes less plants than feeding animal plants and then feeding people animals.

I was able to find sources for your methane production figures, but can you provide them for the CO2?

To your point about increasing CO2 from farming plants: 40-66% of corn and 58%-77% of soy grown in the US is currently fed to animals, and we dedicate 5,000% more acres to growing feed crops than to vegetables[1]. Since between 3 and 10 calories of plants fed to an animal yields 1 calorie of animal product (depending on animal)[2], there would be room to either plant less, plant different, and/or use less emissive practices.

And what percent of that is farming plants to feed animals?
