I mean sure, but greenhouse gasses from agriculture are tiny compared to fossil fuels.

Seems like going vegan wouldn't help. Yours still have deforestation, fertilizer, rice paddies, and fossil fuels in production.
Plant based diets use 75% less land, less fertilizer, no manure which is destroying the water. With a plant rich diet we could reduce GHG from 1500 gt to 708.
I think you should re-read the paper.
Once the huge corporations do their part to stop killing the planet, I'll consider going vegan. Until then I'll put the pressure where it matters most.
Have you done your own research what matters most or do you go with science?

According to the IPCC going vegan is the biggest single step one can take.
B-b-b-but what about the bitcoins? Hurdur.

Sorry, I was adding to, not detracting from your statement. Consumer shaming runs deep in this era, and corpo greed fuels it, agreed.
