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. | ||

You all ASSUME that co2, methane, monoxide, etc, are culprits of global warming. What you don't seem to understand that 1998 was hotter than it was today. The larger Ice bodies are actually thickening, like the arctic. You can do whatever makes you feel smarter than everyone else, but don't push it on other people. Don't kid yourself, all these things you're doing are just meaningless hobbies. Maybe you people should research on sites that aren't funded by someone standing to gain from these "green" achievements. CO2 = fucking plants. We could multiply our co2 emissions by 30, and even the most delicate of plants would survive. http://www.worldclimatereport.com/index.php/2009/10/08/the-ups-and-downs-of-methane/ holy crap your dumb.. could you be any more uninformed?? | ||

Life as a milking cow, or as a chicken laying eggs is absolutely terrible. | ||

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. | ||

Noone is asking you to become a vegetarian. Noone is asking you to become a vegan. 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. | ||

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? | ||

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, 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 | ||
