Happy Earth Day!

[iago]

The day when SUV-driving trash-making non-recycling meat-eating people can stop and pretend they care about the Earth (and even believe themselves!), while still continuing their normal habits. Woo!

this just in, eating meat is linked to global warming.

meat-eating people

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.... whoa..... whoa.

So now that you've been a vegan for what, like, 5 months, you can suddenly have a high horse about meat eating folk?

Are sharks evil too?  They eat meat.

Fuck yeah, they're evil. Have you ever seen Jaws? Anyway, what iago is saying is that because so many people want to eat meat, the demand is really high, too. Cows produce a ton of methane, which is actually a horrible greenhouse gas. Also, it takes much more energy to produce a pound of meat over a pound of plants that taste okay. Cows are just too delicious to not eat!

I ate a delicious cheeseburger, a cream cheese bagel and washed it down with a chocolate milk for Earth Day.

Oh yeah? I threw my collection of old newspapers in a normal garbage bin. I also made yogurt using normal milk AND dehydrated milk AND some yogurt.

When the hell was Earth Day?

8 months. But why's it matter? I made a major lifestyle change based on my beliefs. I wouldn't call it being on a "high horse", I'd call it "pointing out a fact".

It's farming livestock that's bad for the environment, not meat eating itself. But eating meat from farms is pretty much a given. Sharks rarely farm their food.

Yesterday, when I posted this.

I don't believe you!  Gas prices went up again ($3.14 to $3.28), so obviously it was AntiEarth Day, at the least (or maybe it was just Monday).

Well, cars are bad for the Earth, so higher gas prices are good for the earth. It makes sense!

And incidentally, gas passed $5/gal a couple weeks ago. :-o

Then they didnt you mention the people that use plastic (you), the people that use electricity (you), and the people that use anything not produced by their neighbor (you)?

It's all about cutting down and making strides. When possible, I don't use plastic and I recycle what I do use. I try not to use electricity (I replaced all my lights with energy-saver bulbs, even though I don't pay for electricity), plus, my city has relatively clean electricity (hydro). And finally, I buy locally grown produce/products when I can.

I do my best to live cleanly.
