I simply can't eat many things if there isn't at least a little meat in it. Never been a fan of salads, stir frys, or anything like that..

about all I will eat is italian food, pasta, pizza/etc
With a gust of wind, perhaps.

A lot of the methane actually comes from livestock being fed inferior feed. It's like feeding humans a bean diet. That's a lot of farting.

I've actually been seriously considering this recently. Now I have some more incentive, I suppose? I'll try it out for a month. See what happens.
But I might miss meat =(, it's so good! I have nothing against eating meat morally, so that is probably incentive against making the switch.

Anyone who is vegetarian for ethical reasons should also be vegan. Life as a milking cow, or as a chicken laying eggs is absolutely terrible.

Got any photos of the damage farming does to the land and ecosystem? SOY IS MURDER


New research has shown that various north american deserts are the result of maize and foodstuff farming by the nazcas, who by using irrigation basically raped their soil and then fell into huge civil wars over the few remaining scarce resources.

Corn is murder.

I find it irritating how self righteous most meat lovers argue here. As someone that eats the occasional steak myself I can't believe that you're all that ignorant.

Noone is asking you to become a vegetarian.

Noone is saying that eating meat is a terrible crime.

Ridiculing the idea of eating less meat to save your own climate makes you just look stupid.

Besides- since I try to eat less meat, I actually enjoy it more. Like the sunday roast- tastes better when you don't have it every day.

thinking eating less meat actually has a significant impact on climate makes YOU look stupid.

Also veggies are the proof that god doesnt exist, or he does but he is a sadist fuck... seriously, make celery taste like bacon and we would all be skinny.

Using this kind of logic you can murder anyone and think it's fine as long as you don't feel that the damage done there is 'significant' enough

Doesn't address my point whatsoever.

"THE CHINESE ARE EVEN WORSE!" Isn't much of an argument.

I don't know why I bother to reply to a known troll, but there-

Lifestock breeding is responsible for the largest amout of greenhous gases. Thus it's directly responsible for climate change. Uninformed much?

Compare the US to western Europe and Scandinavia, if you really have to compare.

That comparison actually makes sense because the avg. living standarts are much more similar.

You're misinformed because the climatologists who run the blog you cite are sponsored by large anonymous (power) companies with a vested interest in maintaining scientific doubt about the impact of global warming. And yes, 'holy crap you're dumb'.

What is all the fuss about? There is no such thing as a "true" "right" or "wrong" and, thus, eating meat may be "murder" but it's not "wrong."

And, of course, that means murder, incest, rape, etc. etc. are not "wrong" either.

The closest thing to "right" is being the strongest. What is implicit in the vegetarian view -- and this is most clear with the production and distribution of bloody slaughter house videos -- is that pain is an argument against reality.

This underlying premise serves as the foundation of statements like "you wouldn't like that (that = being slaughtered) if you were that animal would you?"

But that is just to say "it sure would suck to be at the mercy of forces infinitely stronger than you." I don't know of any living thing that wouldn't agree (and for those without the conceptual faculty, implicitly agree [as is demonstrated by writhing pigs etc]).

So the upshot of the story is "be strong."*** And the vegetarian response to that lesson is "I'm weak."

If you are interested in the philosophic culmination of the vegetarian attitude, check out Schopenhauer -- his conclusion is that it would be better if there was nothing -- if the universe did not exist. The answer to this view is found in Nietzsche -- and his basic argument against Schopenhauer is that it is silly (and ALWAYS a indication of weakness) to use a fantasy (morality) to judge reality.

***:Note: what genuine strength consists of is not defined here
To say that I'm missing the point, you would first have to show that such work can have a point.

No need to call me dumb for having a different opinion. There's still a large dispute about everything. It's far from settled.

It CAN be done... We HAVE the technology! Genetic engineering is the future... We will become the Gods of the new world! The world of celery that tastes like bacon!!!
