What if everyone was vegan?

Le Monde's answers.

The vegan diet consists of consuming no products derived from animals or their exploitation. Although it only concerns a minority of people in France, vegans are making a name for themselves with shocking videos filmed in slaughterhouses and livestock farms, and widely distributed by associations such as L214.

It's difficult to estimate exactly how many people follow this diet, but as far as food is concerned, sales of 100% plant-based delicatessen-type products have exploded: they rose by 82% in 2016, according to Xerfi.

It's a well-known fact that excessive meat consumption is bad for the environment in terms of its carbon footprint, but if tomorrow everyone went vegan, what would be the impact on the planet, and on humans?
