"People will need to consider turning vegetarian if the world is to
conquer climate change, according to a leading authority on global warming." "He predicted that people’s attitudes would evolve until meat eating became unacceptable. “I think it’s important that people think about what they are doing and that includes what they are eating,” he said. “I am 61 now and attitudes towards drinking and driving have changed radically since I was a student. People change their notion of what is responsible. They will increasingly ask about the carbon content of their food.” http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle6891362.ece What next - taxes on farts? |

The resource required to grow a pound of beef is a bad investment. The beef industry is responsible for helping to deplete a large water reserve under the central US, is responsible for generating huge amounts of methane (which efficient farmers are now using to create power). Commonly known facts: "To make a single pound of meat requires 16 pounds of grain and 2,500 gallons of water. The animal agriculture industry consumes 80% of all plant life grown on this planet for consumption. Oftentimes they are staple crops like corn, soy and grains, which provides double the environmental strain (or 16 times the environmental strain, statistically, than choosing the vegetarian option). 16 times the chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and all the pollution associated with transport of those grains and then transport of the meat as well." It's inefficient in a big way. Do you have an argument with this? |
