..........it contributes to global warming and environmental damage and contributes to today's health problems.
I was thinking, since Al Gore made his documentary called "An Inconvenient truth" in 2007, there has been a buzz about global warming, climate change, green living, green cars, green and more green.....
In his documentary, Al Gore states that carbon dioxide contributes substantially to global warming or climate change and that humanity needs to find alternative ways of generating energy, like for example, we need cars that emit less or zero carbon carbon dioxide instead or today's cars that emit a lot of carbon dioxide. In my opinion, all this global warming and climate change problem was known by a few people for a very long time but I think Al Gore made it more mainstream and he therefore made a lot of people aware of the dangers or climate change especially through his documentary.
I think that a lot of people are now aware of environmental problems and climate change and global warming and people are beginning to change their habits and are beginning to live "green" lifestyles.
There is evidence to suggest and in fact conclude that the meat industry is also to blame for global warming and climate change. Farming animals requires a lot of land and with a growing human population, more land is required and therefore forests have to make way for farmers and livestock in order to supply the demand for meat. Livestock eat a lot of food and when you add transportation costs and everything else, you will realize that the meat industry is also partly to blame for climate change and global warming, together with carbon dioxide emitting cars, coal power plants, etc.
Now I was thinking, since companies, governments and people world wide are now taking steps to limit carbon dioxide emitions by buying "green" products or saving electricity and stuff in order to fight global warming, is it possible to for people (or most people) to stop eating meat provided they are educated about the effects of the meat industry on the environment and it's part in global warming?
Would you stop eating meat and play your part if you know to a full extent how the meat industry is bad for the environment?
