And the waste that these animals produce pollutes the water and air. Eating fish and sea animals also is damaging to the earth's aquatic ecosystem, polluting the seas and causing the extinction of species. The growing of feed for animal agriculture in the United States has lead to environmental damage, such as topsoil erosion, global warming, toxic waste and health problems.
