There will be days where I eat vegan meals, veggie meals, and then carnivorous meals. I generally eat chicken or fish, with red meat rarely. I don't do this for environmental reasons, I do it for health/weight loss reasons. Meat, especially beef, can take up to a month before it fully passes through your body. Most people eat 12-20 oz of meat a day. Recommended portions are 6-8 ounces per day. If you're so worried about the environment, start elsewhere though. Do you know that only about 30% of the US is mandated to recycle? It amazes me that most cities and states either do not offer a recycling program at all, or don't mandate their residents to recycle. Schools are horrible at recycling, businesses too. If the US was at even 80% recycling, the amount of waste and deforestation would dramatically increase. SO, if you want to fight a battle for mother earth, start petitions and get your senator/leader to start enforcing recycling in your state, province, nation, whatever. It'll do a lot more good than simply eating differently. |
Thats very true. It doesn't matter if a few people go overboard about helping the plnet if nobody else cares. Recyling is great; it reduces polution and helps the economy, and some think it helps with global warming (BS imo)
On a side note- what good does it do if the U.S. sacrifices it's economy to fight global warming (specifically thinking of Co2 creidts here) while countries like India and China continue to go beserk with dirty coll burining and other porven POLLUTANTS that are slowly drifitng across the Pacific Ocean to California and Japan and such?
