I’d like to see that study really. The sheer number of small animals (including bugs) killed is extrmely high when it comes to corporate agriculture. Toss in the migratory patterns thrown off and it would be interesting to compare environmental impact of consuming bugs for protein instead of just fruits/vegetables.

If you have concerns with plant agriculture, they are magnified when producing animal products

So your theory is that livestock (as in cows, sheep, etc which they talk about in the article) have the same impact as bugs?
If the world adopted a plant-based diet we would reduce global agricultural land use from 4 to 1 billion hectares

The vast majority of farm land is used for animal feed.
