SHARAN is a pioneering organisation that has been advising exactly what you have written about in your article, Sahil. Moral (ethics and human design, choice), environmental (global warming), health (human design, hormonal issues, chronic diseases). Kudos to Dr. Nandita Shah for being a pioneer in India for this movement.
Eliminating meat and dairy, two of the more visible ingredients in the egregious mix, is a great start. There are more considerations also...
Actually, high demand for meat itself generates food scarcity. 1 gm of animal protein requires much, much more resources than food grains- you have to feed cows and pigs so much of the soya that humans could've eaten just to access some meat. So no, transitioning to vegetarianism will actually help with the problem of rising food prices.
In a globalised and interconnected world, we anyway consume so much stuff that is not grown in our local region. So even a region facing extreme weather conditions can rely on accessing food from other agri-regions.

Sir, would appreciate your views on the following:
1. If everyone on this earth turned to vegetables completely, wouldn't it lead to food scarcity & hunger deaths.
2. In extremely cold/hot weather conditions where vegetables can't be grown, what is the choice?
3. Loss of employment the industry is providing even though torturous.
