Yes! And takes up 44% of land mass!

44% accounts for all agriculture, animal agriculture using about ~80% of that total

If meat by itself is nunber two, surely adding dairy, eggs, leather, silk, wool to that would make animal agriculture nunber one?

with all animal products including transport and land use changes, energy production is still #1

As per ‘global warming’, yes, number 2 behind fossil fuels. Environmental destruction as in being the leading cause of deforestation, biodiversity loss, water pollution/depletion, ocean dead zones, marine debris (fishing industry), and more emissions than all transportation combined.
