> the only way to solve global warming is to stop driving cars. Would that solve the problem? Of course it would

No it would not. We have to do many things to solve it, not just one thing or another.

And nobody argues that we should stop eating ... that would equal stopping driving. But as we can drive electric instead, we can also eat something else than animals.

We already get majority of calories out of plants ... animals supply only 18% of calories and 37% proteins (https://ourworldindata.org/land-use).

>> Sustainable animal husbandry represents less than 5% of the total.

Mea culpa. That max 5% is non-industrial farming. How big part of it is sustainable i do not know.
