regardless of how many beans you buy, the meat dairy and egg industries continue to pollute in ever greater amounts.

No, reduced demand will wreck the prices for the producers, who will reduce supply and thereby reduce the overall volume of production, which will reduce the volume of pollution, water usage, etc. Beef production in the U.S. has been relatively stable since 2000, despite the population growth and increased consumer spending on food. The market responds to input costs and demand, and things like drought conditions drop production significantly.

Yes, but so has demand. I'm saying if demand goes down, so will production.

whatever your excuse, being vegan has not decreased meat production
