What effect will there be in our food chain if we do not eat meat?

a) my research question is: What effect will there be in our food chain if we do not eat meat?

b) My working thesis is: it will be somewhere along the line of, If we do not eat meat in our daily diet, our food chain would be disturbed which will lead to over population, messing up our eco system and unbalance diet for other creatures.

c) My initial research plan is to primarily use the Internet to do my research and use secondary sources such as books etc if necessary. Videos are also available such as documentaries that I can watch to learn. These are probably the main sources I would use to reference my research paper on.
