Is Vegetarianism Always Better for the Planet Than Eating Meat?
By | Jul 20, 2010
An article over at MotherJones asks a question many are asking…and comes up with some interesting discussion.
“A dyed-in-the-wool vegetarian, I had always assumed that when it came to sustainability, my diet would beat the leather pants off that of my burger-crazy friends. But as I wrote in “Get Behind Me, Seitan,” July/August 2010 issue of Mother Jones some environmentalists and farmers claim that eating responsibly raised meat can actually be good for the planet. So whos right? I posed the question to four smart people: Farmer and writer Joel Salatin, Diet for a Hot Planet author Anna Lappé, Bard College geophysicist Gidon Eshel, and food-waste expert Jonathan Bloom.”
