There is an article in The Washington Post about the Amazon rainforest being destroyed by Americans love of beef.
A long time ago when there was the Mad Cow Disease problem, I switched from beef ground meat to buffalo. It is raised on grasslands in the U.S. midwest, and arrives in our grocery stores in vacuum sealed packaging. It is even raised inside the city limits of Amarillo TX nearby, inside the Loop 335 in the northeast quadrant, although a brand new not quite operational Amazon fulfillment center is now occupying part of that land. Ironically a different Bezos based Amazon has permanently taken land away from raising cattle and buffalo. There were also donkeys and large white birds when I did some photography in the area several years ago.
