if you think that's wild, animal agriculture uses 13 TRILLION litres or gallons of water a year. Compared with fracking, which uses 220 billiion.
i don't think that's right. can you substantiate that?
oh, you know what? it's actually worse. significantly worse. It's 34-76 trillion gallons annually, https://www.cowspiracy.com/facts
both of those are 20 years out of date but I'll look at the methodology. it still seems off by orders of magnitude
