Vegetarianism and the Environment

The real movers and shakers in the environmental policy are not plastic bags, shower nozzles, recycled cans, or bricks in the toilet cistern. They are food, housing, water and land. No human behaviour has a bigger environmental impact than diet.

Care2 is leading the way. We need to get the word out that eating meat proudly supports the war in Iraq. If so many people claim to be anti-Bushand the war, why do they eat so much meat when it is the biggest consumption of oil?

I always try to tell people about the harmful effects of eating meat, they don't realise how bad it affects the planet, and they think you're abnormal because you don't eat it!
Thanks Ben, noted.
