minus-squareJiral@lemmy.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 days agoIf I look at German sources almonds and beef/pork have the following overall water demand for 1 kg product: Almonds: 10000-15000 L/kg, beef: 15400 L/kg, pork needs apparently half of beef That does not necessarily sound like “less than meat”.
