Tbh, it's not only the meat industry. Look what happened in Argentina, with the intensive culture of soybeans by big farms:

Yeah the system can´t take much more pressure, but swapping / converting cattle land to farm land would do a lot of difference both towards GHG emission, Stopping soil erotion, lower bacterial spreading and it would save about X0000 liter water per kg produced food.
It is the only way, there is no more land to make into cattle or farm land, and the system is already overloaded at the same time as meat consumption grows..This is a time bomb.
Making soy farms into alternative crop farms would have very little impact compared to converting cattle land to farm land :)
