Reaction: Could a diet change curb climate change?

[rosuabsc]

There is no such thing as global warming, it is all a lie.. if anything it is cooling. Its all a lie we are being lied to..

i think its aload of bull , its just us putting the blame on animals, and for those thinking this would prevent animal cruelty,what do you think will happen to all these animals? you think they will be free ,making familys in the hills breathing out co2?think again heh i think reducing consumption is a better solution by capping population growth ,support your local butchers rather then fast food chains, dont have like 14 kids across 3 marriages and grow a tree in your garden :)

I cannot stand these people who pretend to care about the environment, and then as soon as someone mentions meat consumption as a contributor they go "oh well I like meat so I don't care." Al Gore, anyone?

0:39 People like this guy piss me off. He just dismisses the facts because they're inconvenient to him! I am SO HAPPY THIS VIDEO WAS POSTED! No one ever talks about meat consumption and the environment! Thank you so much for posting this!!!

1:10 someone who gets it!

Are you kidding me? You know that the water he's referring to is salt water that cannot be consumed? You can't drink ocean water. Neither can animals in animal farms.  We give them fresh water. We are running out of fresh water. It's not only about global warming it's also about resource depletion! What would happen if we ran out of water?

[eCOREBMX]

Well you could make a simple water purification system, and put the ocean water in it, and through condensation, you will have fresh water:) If you want to know how to make it send me a message. but i think you missed his point a little bit, he is saying that if man lives on less than 1/3 the earth, how can he possible create global warming around the rest of the earth? Man made Global warming is fake, its a natural cycle, humans have no control over it...

[watermelonygoodness]

I know what desalination is. You cannot desalinate the oceans water as a supply of freshwater for humans. Firstly because it leaves you with an immense amount of salt that you have nothing to do with which dries the Earth of the nutrients needed to produce crops, second because then you will just end up depleting the oceans and we'll really be screwed. I understood his point it just has no basis in science. When presented with scientific studies you can't really just say "well we occupy...

[watermelonygoodness]

...such a small amount of land, there's no way it can be true." Well just because it doesn't make sense to someone who doesn't have a degree in climatology, doesn't mean it isn't happening. I am inclined to believe that global warming is happening because I trust climatologists over you, no offense, but I don't really care either way. You missed me point, resource depletion is an enormous concern at this point and all anyone can talk about is global warming. What about the fact that...

[watermelonygoodness]

...we are running short on land, water, and food worldwide? Meat production is extremely wasteful.

[plstkr07]

There's alot of food in the stores you idiot.

[watermelonygoodness]

What the hell are you talking about?

[watermelonygoodness]

When did I say there isn't food in stores? What does that have to do with anything?

[eCOREBMX]

con.t... I'm watching it snow here, i haven't see snow this early around here since i was a little guy, other places of the world have record lows, and even some Glaciers are growing in the northern hemisphere, global warming seems to be myth, simple observation prooves that. Just because some places are expieriencing warmer temp.s doesn't mean its global warming.

We'd have to eat watermelon.
