That's another reason the campaign fails. <BR/><BR/>I'm sorry to disagree with your assessment, but unless you living in a cave, there are always going to be some environmental consequences to existence. Can we live better with the environment. You bet.

You just don't understand because it's indirect maybe. When you factor in all the food that has to be grown for livestock, all the clear-cutting to graze them, all the fuel that goes into farming and transpotation and all the rest.

Britney and Lindsay don't eat meat? I didn't know that.<BR/><BR/>Coincidentally, the animals in the shelters are not fed Vegetarian diets, adding to the global warming I imagine. However, I just read today that you can create a Vegetarian diet for pets. Whether this is good idea or propaganda, I cannot say.<BR/><BR/>Best, <BR/>RichRichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249654290264168416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10282351.post-51580721781991385552007-08-30T14:20:00.000-07:002007-08-30T14:20:00.000-07:00Wow....I've donated to the Humane Society several ...Wow....I've donated to the Humane Society several times in the past. But no more. Unfathomable to think that they would use their time and resources (not to mention donations) to pay for silly, unimaginative drivel like this and then pay to run it. <BR/><BR/>I guess it's more important to them to show how hip and controversial they are than to feed and care for animals in need. <BR/><BR/>From nowKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375514184645072074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10282351.post-42789218983910230792007-08-30T14:07:00.000-07:002007-08-30T14:07:00.000-07:00It would have been a better gem if I had read it b...It would have been a better gem if I had read it before clicking publish.<BR/><BR/>Or perhaps it's Britney and Lindsay behind this one.

I am surprised as you seem to be. <BR/><BR/>From the story, PETA had written to more than 700 environmental groups, asking them to promote vegetarianism. The Humane Society of the United States took up the issue and produced the ad shown on the blog.<BR/><BR/>All my best, <BR/>RichRichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11249654290264168416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10282351.post-85882191672801293102007-08-30T12:42:00.000-07:002007-08-30T12:42:00.000-07:00PETA and the Humane Society are two completely dif...PETA and the Humane Society are two completely different organizations.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13910093886404792584noreply@blogger.com
