The Environmental Impact of Meat, ProQuest Discovery Guides

The Environmental Impact of Meat, ProQuest Discovery Guides:

'via Blog this'

An interesting article about the environmental impact of eating meat (and cheese).  I tried various states of being vegetarian for 8 years, and if it's done right, it can be a great lifestyle.  The environmental impact is an interesting angle, as opposed to animal cruelty or religious reasons.  One quote I found most interesting was, "If everyone in the U.S. ate no meat or cheese just one day a week, it would be like not driving 91 billion miles – or taking 7.6 million cars off the road."

Thanks to my wife for sending this my way!
