Not Vegetarian? You Will Be Soon.
here here, sista.
A recent article found at The New Foreign Policy argues that, like it or not, the vegetarian revolution is upon us and it is arriving by force. The article centers not on the moral or ethical debate for an animal-free diet but rather supports the logical conclusion to a meat filled world, total environmental destruction. Here’s a sample:The numbers suggest that we won’t stop eating meat simply because it’s “the right thing to do.” People love it too much. Instead, we’ll be forced to stop. By 2025, we simply won’t have the resources to keep up the habit. According to the FAO report, 33 percent of the world’s arable land is devoted to growing crops for animal feed, and grazing is a major factor in deforestation around the world. It’s also incredibly water-intensive. The average U.S. diet requires twice the daily amount of water as does an equally nutritious vegetarian diet, reports the Worldwatch Institute. Meanwhile, there will be more than 8 billion people on this earth, and two-thirds of the world’s population will live in water-stressed regions. I agree fully with the author of this article. Many people will never care how brutal or unhealthy meat consumption is but they may someday care to have clean water to drink and fresh air to breathe. The vegetarian/vegan revolution will arrive by force, I can almost guarantee it. If you are not a vegetarian now, you may be one in 16 years.
