| stof said: I actually became Vegetarian a few months ago for environmental reasons. Partly global warming, but mainly because the planet couldn't even sustain us if the entire world attempted to eat the meat heavy diets that the Western world does. The amount of land, resources and energy that go in to growing what is required for a vegetarian meal are far less than the amount that goes in to a meat dish. If we didn't have to worry about producing the overwhelming amount of grain and hay that farm animals require, the world would be a lot better off. That said, next time I'm at the Guelph Farmer's market, I'm stopping at the grass fed, hormone free elk meat stand. I can't wait to try that stuff. |
This is my sentiment exactly, however, I cannot get myself to stop eating meat.
