I'll probably never become a vegan, but I get worried when I see how many resources are used to farm meat, that it makes me think just how much land and produce we could save by becoming vegetarian. Of course, I guess I don't have much of a say, because I still eat meat.

How many resources are used to grow, harvest, process and transport an equal energy equivalent amount of veggies compared to meat. A cow does all the veggie processing for you!

An old graph from 2002 shows veggies and fruit are pretty much on par with meat and seafood:
