Just because some douche bag with the social skills no extroverted then a cactus says so, doesn’t make it the most effective method. Humans have been eating meat since the time they walked the earth; meat is emerged in our culture, religion, celebrations.  Guess we should get rid of beer and apple pie too, .. Are you anti American Ms, Ingrid? The problem is globalization; there are hundreds and thousands of conglomerate factory's that produce goods, such as plastics, paper, and mercury. Plants like these do way worse destruction to the earth then carnivorous-ism. Yet the best that someone can offer me is to stop eating meat. OMG  Don’t choose environmental friendly products,  our make conscience decisions about the products you buy. Boy Ingrid you just fix the world’s problems, Crack is also bad for the community, can you say something to Bobby Brown. Hey if i am a vegetarian will my farts smell like fruit? Just because we identified one problem that factors one of the world’s   environmental issues, doesn’t make your point strong. There are many other things that a person can do to conserve and contribute to helping the environment super woman. by side winding kids into become vegetarians by fear makes you no better than an Al Qaeda jihadist, or a Christian terrorist playing on the fears of individuals like the succubus you are.
