Great post, Steve! I must say I was surprised to see you writing about climate change but I'm certainly glad you did. I didn't expect it to go into veganism but I shouldn't have been surprised about that--I already knew that factory farming is one of the worst things for the environment.
Incidentally, is this report publicly available?

I'm surprised by that statistic and I'd be interested to see it. Though it does make me feel better about the four transatlantic flights I've taken--all since I went vegan!
I knew when I read this post that there would be plenty of angry doubters showing up to clutter the thread. I see a few already. Primo antagonists, Steve
