Chr1st....half of you lot have some old caveman attitudes. Open your mind a bit and you might learn something or become enlightened.
I look and listen to all sides, absorb all the information and make my own mind up and decisions.
The fact is the planet is outgrowing itself that we know.....FACT. it is just a question of when not if.
I am not a vegetarian or a vegan and never have been nor likely ever will be. Eating meat or vegetables or fish or whatever is not the issue. It is how it is create, sourced, processed, distributed, eaten, wasted, disposed of and everything end to end. Clearly what we are doing now is not good enough, will come to an end and needs changes. If neanderthal attitudes don't changes then it will all come to a point of no return.
Why wait until we get to that point or any closer? If you can see you a driving into a wall.....would you carry on driving towards it and not take action to avoid it until the last minute or not all? I guess some would!
Yes, cows and conventional meat product and consumption is a problem. That is not in question. We all know this as a FACT. There are many other issues and this is just one. It is not focussed on this issue alone.
It is now how we choose to use our brains as an intelligent (or should do) race to see how we can improve and become more efficient or advanced.
I don't agree with extremism in any form. The presenter on the program is an environmental and political activist as I understand. I respect his view but they are not mine and I will listen to what all and sundry have to say on the subject. Why wouldn't I? He just seems to care about the planet more than some and wants to do something a out it. Is that so wrong?
As a vegan he hunted, shot, killed, cooked and ate a deer as part of the Scottish cull due to massive over population of deer numbers causing a desicimation of the local environment and habitats. The cull and project backed/funded by a billionaire has had massive success already restoring the environment and habitats there.
I am not telling anyone what they should do or how to live their life. Just merely trying to keep people's intelligent minds open. A closed mind is not a not a healthy thing.
