isn’t most of modern vegetable agriculture at least equally harmful

I'm a going with far more harmful.

Vegans should stop eating vegetables and only eat honey then? Is that it?

Yeah. The modern method of acres and acres of one species being farmed, with or without pesticides and other performance enhancing drugs is terrible for the environment.

For many animals, you might as well build an asphalt parking lot for each acre of corn or soy you plant. Same goes for Western grass lawns.

The critters that can't adapt starve or move away.

So you are saying that instead of eating vegetables vegans should just eat honey?
