i attended a screening of "Meat The Truth".. which tells us about the detriments to Earth due to human's obsession with meat-eating.. this was the flyer given during the event..

this has come as a greater revelation to me because.. for more than a year now.. i have become a "free-willed vegetarian".. or "social meat-eater".. or "circumstantial carnivore" (whatever you may call it).. i had afore thought that energy and raw materials was the limiting factor to the prosperity of humankind on Earth.. now apparently the issue of food looks increasingly likely to bring upon our downfall..

compassion and cruelty of animals aside.. personal health concerns aside.. we must come to see that the production of meat is seriously taking its toll on our planet.. the rearing of livestock simply consumes unrealistically large amounts of resources, and generates so much pollution as compared to the cultivation of crops alone.. we may as well be drilling a hole through a century old oak tree just to extract a single toothpick from its core.. then leaving the oak to die..

the concept of food has evolved since the prehistoric era from "the need to eat" to "what to eat?".. so should we "eat to live" or "live to eat"?.. many people are even obsessed about food that lunch and dinner has become a permanent topic of debate..

therefore.. i weep for the future of mankind.. at least i know that if a famine does occur.. i wouldn't be the first to starve.. maybe i should start learning how to eat grass..

if anybody has any interest in "saving the planet" or going vegetarian.. please visit this website for a start..
