Cowspiracy documentary: factually accurate?

Anyone see this doc (now streaming on Netflix)? It argues that the livestock industry is far worse for the environment than from cars/fossil fuels, etc. Also that the major environmental groups (Greenpeace, etc) don't want to talk about that.

A bit amateurish in some ways and definitely polemical, but, if the facts hold up, it does make a compelling argument for veganism. Thoughts?

Quote:

Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret is a groundbreaking feature-length environmental documentary following intrepid filmmaker Kip Andersen as he uncovers the most destructive industry facing the planet today – and investigates why the world’s leading environmental organizations are too afraid to talk about it.

Animal agriculture is the leading cause of deforestation, water consumption and pollution, is responsible for more greenhouse gases than the transportation industry, and is a primary driver of rainforest destruction, species extinction, habitat loss, topsoil erosion, ocean “dead zones,” and virtually every other environmental ill. Yet it goes on, almost entirely unchallenged.
