Good point, Emery, and one I should have made. But then I didn't assume that CAFO's and "a regenerative agriculture" could be taken as being in the same logical construct.
If the only meat were CAFO meat, I'd be a vegan, too. (And yes, I do practice what I preach: I've had to do a couple of lunches at a local restaurant recently. I choose vegetarian fare, because I *will not* eat the animals on the menu--chicken, beef, pork--that were produced in a way I find not only morally repulsive but an assault on agricultural sustainability.)
