For every quarter-pound hamburger made from rainforest beef, 55 square feet of rainforest are destroyed.

To date, probably the most reliable and widely-accepted water estimate to produce a pound of beef is the figure of 2,500 gallons.


[/ QUOTE ]i'm not disputing these numbers, but just exactly how much rainforest and water do we have? if these numbers are true, don't we use up millions of sq ft of rainforest a day? and millions of gallons of water? at least? and we've been doing this for decades? why aren't we running out of either?
