The best way we could battle global warming is stop consuming animals

Asheville Citizen-Times.com

A guest commentary from a long-time vegan scores big points for environmentalism when suggesting that a plant-based diet can play an important role in helping to stem global warming. After making a research-based case against eating animal products, Terri David goes on to say:
Most environmental groups can barely spit out the words, “eat lower on the food chain,” but they would better serve the earth if they made veganism the cornerstone of their global warming campaigns. They should be shouting about it, but, instead, won’t even have the conversation.
Harsh words for the environmental movement, but much needed, I think. Any environmental activist that eats the standard American diet is really only chipping at the tip of the iceberg in terms of what he or she can do for the planet. Go vegan. Stay vegan.

People are just not willing to make such a sacrifice! It is easier to convience people in general to turn off their lights when they aren't using them and put paper in the recycle bin instead of the trash. Vegetarianism is labeled "extremeist" and why get caught up with those "extremist"

God forbid we side with the "Extremist" lol, infact i'm pretty sure they are all commies as well. Lets just all continue to turn off out lights once in a while to be sure we are "converted" by the "extremist" or those darned "commies".
