For all the good he's done for the environment-which, to be fair, is
an
awful lot-Al's leaving out a huge piece of the puzzle by ignoring the
fact
that the devastation caused by the meat industry
(http://goveg.com/environment.asp) is among the worst environmental
disasters ever to happen to the world. As we told him in our letter,
sent
earlier this week:
While the steps that you urge people to take in An Inconvenient
Truth are
inarguably important, the quickest and most effective way to fight
climate
change will come through diet change.
An inconvenient truth for him, maybe, but it's the truth nonetheless.
Since
he might not have seen the recent U.N. reports
(http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=20772&Cr=global&Cr1=environment)
on the subject, we pointed out to him that animals raised for food
generate
more greenhouse gases (http://goveg.com/environment-globalwarming.asp)
than
all cars and trucks combined, and that (according to a recent
University of
Chicago study), switching to a vegan diet is more effective in
countering
global warming than switching from a standard American car to a Prius.
We've
also offered to cook him some faux "fried chicken" as an introduction
to
meat-free meals, since, however many documentaries you make, you just
can't
be a meat-eating environmentalist. I'll let you know if he gets back
to us.

Yes! Thank you!
You're welcome
I'm going threw withdraws already. I used half the milk and omitted the
cheese I usually put in my eggs ;)
It'll get better
So you are switching to vegetarianism for the global warming scam?
Not for that, to reduce the pollution that cows and chickens excrete into
the soil
|
By the way, I didn't say I was going to be a vegeitarian, I said I was gonna
cut out half my meat consumption.
Last night I had a fish burger at the BK Lounge. Ya gotta start somewhere.
I'll admit my freezer is filled with delicious meats, even venison. I just
took out some ribs for when we come back from fishing....empty handed.

I appreciate that you recognize that the amount of greenhouse gasses
produced by 'all the cars and trucks combined' is relatively low.
But I wonder if you appreciate the fact that the animals we raise as
food have been domesticated to such an extent that to stop eating them
and stop raising them, they will become extinct - they lack the natural
defenses and metabolism to successfully exist in the wild.
|
Hhaha...who ever said we should stop eating meat? Not me, I had a Pavlovian
moment just thinking about the ribs just taken out for when I come home
empty handed from fishing tomorrow.
You have some wild imagination there, Umberto. No ones out to take your
cecina away.
| Quote: |
They'd still have to dies, somehow. We would either have to kill them
all off until the supply is exhausted - and then quit eating them 'cold
turkey', as it were or, we'd have to care for them in some kind of adult
care cow facility or home. This is impractical, because there is not
enough time to train enough people to provide hospice care to elderly
cows, and the farmers will be busy, out looking for new, more
earth-friendly jobs.
Not only that, but take veal, which accounts for only 1/12 of the total
production of beef cattle. Allowing these animals to live several years
longer than they would have otherwise, would have a counterproductive
effect, as there would temporarily be a 7-8 percent rise in population
from those animals, which translates into more global warming, more
quickly, to say nothing of the much greater rise in population of the
steers and heifers that would be living to a ripe old age. Without
continued production, there would be a sudden, devastating increase in
greenhouse gasses on Earth, and potentially the entire solar system, for
all we know. (send me a grant and I'll check it out)
A much better solution would be to slaughter all those animals we DON'T
eat - and as quickly as possible. This would have an immediate,
BENEFICIAL effect for the Earth, and still allow people the choice of
meat until they become fully indoctrinated.
That way humans, as a population, would taper off their consumption, as
the supplies naturally dwindle.
In fact, a kind of compromise could be reached that would make it both
easier for people to live with, and at the same time, benefit mother
earth: for example, one elephant produces 15 times more greenhouse
gasses than domesticated cattle, and a hippo a whopping 25 times more.
Slaughtering an elephant and a hippo would allow for the continued
husbandry of 40 ordinary cattle, so we could taper back consumption that
way. Once the Elephants and Hippos are gone, we can either look at
other animals, such as elk, moose and giraffes, or just start killing
off more cows. Of course, we'd have to be careful so the earth doesn't
get 'too' cold.
Other than that, it's a great idea, but we have to look at the effects
of our actions on mother Earth.

LOL! You're funny.
Actually, Al has set very legitimate and critical environmental
progress back by at LEAST twenty years. For his own enrichment and
ego gratification, he picked up a turd (bad science), sprayed it with
gold paint (with CFC propellant of course) and smugly tried to tell us
all it's a gold bar. He's even given junk science a bad name -- and
caused a small army of gullible morons like you to swoon from the
hard-ons he gave you all.
If you don't like cow farts, then stop eating beef. Meanwhile, follow
the example of a better man than you:
While vacuous, resource squandering liberals like Al Gore blabber on
and on about how much they care for the environment, many
conservatives quietly live by the very environmental values preached
by the liberal hypocrites. The shallow, intellectual and personal
dishonesty of many loud mouth liberals is not merely annoying, it's
actually pretty comical. Consider who DID take this issue more
seriously ...
The 4,000-square-foot house is a model of environmental rectitude.
Geothermal heat pumps located in a central closet circulate water
through pipes buried 300 feet deep in the ground where the temperature
is a constant 67 degrees; the water heats the house in the winter and
cools it in the summer. Systems such as the one in this "eco-friendly"
dwelling use about 25% of the electricity that traditional heating and
cooling systems utilize.
A 25,000-gallon underground cistern collects rainwater gathered from
roof runs; wastewater from sinks, toilets and showers goes into
underground purifying tanks and is also funneled into the cistern. The
water from the cistern is used to irrigate the landscaping surrounding
the four-bedroom home. Plants and flowers native to the high prairie
area blend the structure into the surrounding ecosystem.
No, this is not the home of some eccentrically wealthy eco-freak
trying to shame his fellow citizens into following his pristine,
self-righteous example. And no, it is not the wilderness retreat
of the Sierra Club or the Natural Resources Defense Council, a haven
where tree-huggers plot political strategy. No, it belongs to a person
who simply and quietly practices what Al Gore preaches but fails to
live by in his own life ...

If George Dubya Bush is so Texan, then how come he talks with a
perfect Northern Atlantic accent? And how come he's afraid to ride a
horse? If Bush can pretend to be Texan, then so can these
two.......all the way from Sheffield, England:

LOL! Great response clown. Please continue to display the vast

morons like you are simply the best possible argument against your
idiotic agenda that decent folks everywhere could hope for. |

UPDATE:
I've lost about 17 lbs. since I took the pledge to reduce red meat
consumption. I feel great! I eat more salads (with grilled chicken).
With the price of gas meat has really gone up in price. Not buying red meat
has offset the cost of driving.
