Al Gore mystifies me. He works tirelessly to raise environmental awareness, yet he continues to ignore evidence that eating meat is the No. 1 cause of global warming.
Making “carbon offsets” can’t counteract the damage done by the meat industry. That’s like smoking three packs a day and then making a nominal contribution to a lung-cancer charity. If we’re serious about saving the planet, it’s time to go vegan.
A University of Chicago study showed that switching to a vegan diet is about 50 percent more effective in countering global warming than switching from a standard car to a Prius.
The Live Earth Global Warming Survival Handbook — the companion volume to the Live Earth concerts inspired by Gore — states that “refusing meat” is “the single most effective thing you can do to reduce your carbon footprint.”
Going vegan will also “offset” pollution, deforestation and other problems — not to mention help billions of animals. With all due respect to Mr. Gore, it’s time to face the “inconvenient” truth and go vegan.
