    Plants have no eyes, no ears, no mouth and no hands. They do not have a brain or a nervous system. And yet, when something comes around to eat them, they sense it. And they fight back.https://nyti.ms/2N9g04e

        Why? Eating a plant based diet uses much less plants than a meat based diet. So you kill less plants and animals if you are veg*n than if you eat animals.
