"Plants feel pain" is still a argument in favour of veganism (slrpnk.net)

Plants are fed to animals, and then those animals are butchered.

How many insects and small rodents are killed? Also, what about the pesticides that seep into the soil?

Argument still in favour of veganism.

If we are putting animals as food in the equation, we need more plants, means more insects, rodents etc die too. If we don't rely on animals for food, we don't need as many plants, less rodents, insects die.
