You're right - absolutely terrible. But habitat destruction pales in comparison to the lifetime of suffering & torture we directly inflict on domesticated animals like cows & sheep. Indonesia's rainforests have been destroyed at the rate of 1 football field sized area each year since the 1970s due to meat consumption ... cattle & their feed crops need that land. Likewise in South America. Just look at the videos of the Live Export Trade of Cattle to Indonesia & Sheep to the Middle East. This is consumer-driven... corporations would cease to exist if there were no consumer demand for their products.
