even the smartest ppl in the world like albert einstein said that:"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances of survival for life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet." now go and do some research next time instead of just opening ur mouth and blessing ppl with ur uneducated ideas :)

yeah i was looking for a video like this too!!!!! im so happy :)

well for me it was hard but its getting easier for me cuz im getting used to it.. it helps when you know that you're being friendly to animals, your body (health), and even the environment. There is nothing bad about being vegetarian.. NOTHING!

I'd be pretty damn pissed if my meat was green. I pay for fresh meat, not rotten meat.

Supply and demand. If you pay someone for a cow they raised, they're going to raise more to make more money. You aren't helping anyone.

Actually, only the west has had a real craving for meat. I personally like salads over steaks, and so do much of the eastern world. Taste buds are irrelevant. Meat isn't a delicacy in many nations.

Converting the world to vegetarianism is a fruitless goal. As a whole, people will never stop eating meat. I think a better direction would be to reform the ways that the animals are raised and processed. You can't improve on Man's taste buds, but you can improve the technology that puts the food there.

this isnt about hunting. it's about factory farming. 99 percent of all consumed meat is from factory farms. stick to the issue.

Everyone here does realize that eating wild caught animals is "greener" than agriculture, right?

Going out and catching a fish or killing a deer for food is far more environmentally friendly and then any form of agriculture.

Would anyone think its wrong for me to eat wild game when it is obviously a "greener" form of food?

You have the grammar skills of a five year old.

meat isnt green, unless you leave it out too long. congrats you're not colourblind.

We pointed to the glaring ERRORS in a 2006 United Nations report that claimed 18 percent of global greenhouse gases are related to animal agriculture. In 2008, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency calculated that the entire agriculture sector accounted for only 6 percent of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, while sources directly related to livestock production represented barely 2.5 percent of the total.

so? I dont agree with them on everything but they have a point on most things, like how factory farms treat animals and the impacts on our health and environment. I financially support and volunteer for veganoutreach though
