That is a rather silly premise for being a vegetarian IMO. Anyone who thinks they are killing less because they are a vegetarian is a little confused. I am a vegetarian because I know the cruelty behind factory farming and I could not live with myself knowing that some animal lived in complete misery before it was slaughtered in a possibly inhumane fashion just so I could eat it. It's also an environmentally-mindful practice because livestock consume tons and tons of grain and water to make a tiny amount of meat. They also produce good ol' CO2. So yeah, if you're a pagan and you genuinely care about the earth... there is good reason to be vegetarian. But not for the reasons listed in your post.
