    So less food, more people? Have you heard the term “famine” before?

      The Netherlands exports an enormous amount of meat currently. It’s the largest exporter of meat of any EU country. They export 60% of the meat they produce. So yeah, they would be fine.

      The Netherlands is currently really suffering from nitrogen pollution, in a big part because of the meat industry. So it would also be a great improvement for the environment to reduce the meat production.

      Having such a big part of the European meat production localized in one of the most populated regions in the EU is just a recipe for disaster.

      Less food”? What are you talking about? Most of the land used for livestock is for exported meat. Also, meat is an incredibly unsustainable source of food.

      Livestock are incredibly inefficient at producing food. If you use a small fraction of the land to grow crops there will be plenty to eat.
