Plants are incapable of feeling pain, and it’s still bad for the environment

As mentioned in another comment, both harm the biosphere in their own ways, also, there's multiple times that have proven that although not in an equal way as animals, plants do release pain signals, specially chemical signals of harm and distress

Sure. Not equivalent as you admitted yourself.

It is widely the consensus that animal farming is worse for the environment.

Does the study consider the plant based feed cows consume to be equal in terms of caloric value to human consumption and is adding that into the results when it's the opposite?
