So then we have

Many long-term raw foodists seem to gradually decrease the amount of food they eat over the years.
Of course, if you care about plants, it makes sense to eat them directly instead of indirectly eating many times the volume via animal foods. That way your footprint is smaller. Also, when you eat fruit, you don't have the plant.
You can also harvest pieces of veggie plants without killing the plant. I grow green onions in my garden and haven't had to uproot any of the plants. I just harvest a few pieces before I'm going to eat it, and the plant lives on.
