Finally! an article which just says it how it is. eating meat does in fact contribute to climate change. and pollution of rivers. and deforestation of the rainforest. and spread of disease. oh, wait, the article doesn't talk about those. in fact nothing in the news talks about anything other than climate change. it's become synonymous with environmental anythings. but i digress. i agree actually, almost 100% with this article. that said, as i have mentioned before, diet is a very personal thing. and i wouldn't tell a friend that i think they should become vegetarian. but, i will call all meat eaters out here, now. hello!!? are you just turning a blind eye? i know i've always been a vegetarian and so maybe i don't understand the annoyance of giving something up. i try to drive less. and make my showers shorter. and eat organic and local. and reuse things. i make changes in my personal life too. why can't others take this on? why would it be so hard to start giving up meat? especially beef. i don't know if anyone i know actually reads this...but i hope lots of people read the article. and most of all, become conscientious enough to make a change.
