I have an alternative to fish as livestock feed but it is a bit out there!

Er what about not eating livestock and eating a plant based diet instead? Animal agriculture is desperatly innefficient and totally unneccessary so just don't do it.

There the fish survive, wildlife can flourish, the world can be fed, health can be improved, the environment is cleaner, 50% of antibiotics are not used purely for animals the list goes on!

In the face of the benefits of a plant based diet what do you have to argue taht we should eat an animal based one?

honestly?
