Did You Know?

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1 acre of land can produce 20,000 pounds of vegetables.
The same amount of land can only produce 165 pounds of meat.

"Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet." Albert Einstein

Eating meat and dairy products over an extended period of time will lead to obesity, diabetes, kidney stones, hypertension and gout.

Raising livestock for food consumption is responsible for 20% of all greenhouse gases emitted.
This is more than the entire automobile industry around the world combined!

So if you really want to go green, stop supporting the meat industries and go veggie!

Hey I have to rant sometimes, if not just to vent, but to also educate you on why a vegetarian lifestyle is not only good for you, it's good for our planet as well.       Stay Hungry......Guy
