I hope that we will wake up and realise that humanity needs a new WorldView if we are going to survive much longer. We need a new attitude, new caring and new stewardship of our lovely planet Earth.
This video link is the best video I've come across yet that talks about this... take a look!

I just learned that eating Red Meat shortens your lifespan by 12% (20% if it's processed) - And something called "Pink Slime" is in our hamburger meat... I'm trying to go Vegan

Quote:

Dr. Dean Ornish, clinical professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, urges people to scale back on red meat consumption for another reason: the environment. A quarter-pounder with cheese "takes 26 ounces of petroleum and leaves a 13-pound carbon footprint. This is equivalent to burning 7 pounds of coal," he wrote in an editorial accompanying the study. "What is personally sustainable is globally sustainable. What is good for you is good for our planet.

Quotation "A human being is part of the whole called by us universe , a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty...We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive." - Albert Einstein
