What Rose is saying is all the plant matter eaten by livestock to get big and fat and turned into delicious food far outweighs the plant matter we'd need to eat if we were vegetarian. We burn an immense amount of resources - both food and otherwise - to raise our future steaks/bacon/etc.
Vegetarianism would, in effect, be better for the global ecology, and if everyone was vegetarian, we could support many more people's nutritional needs than we can right now.
But!
For me, despite knowing what I know, fuck vegetarianism. Beef > Celery.
