I am convinced that the connection has been established. Do we really need to prove the connection anymore?
I will focus future blog posts on ideas, strategies on transitioning to a more plant-based / vegetarian diet. I believe that is what we all need to hear.
We can debate, discuss, analyze this topic to death – but I think we have all the proof we need.
If you already are vegetarian or vegan, or transitioning to a more plant-based diet what is important for those who want to eat less meat/dairy , to consider?
I find that the best way to start eating more vegetarian food, is to simply be around people who share the same concerns and values about the health of people and of this planet.
Cook. Share creative ways to cook veggies and make soups and quick vegetarian lunch ideas. Start with one meal a day that is completely vegetarian. Discuss your concerns. Tell other people of your progress. Spread your enthusiasm to your friends and family. Wow them with an amazing dish for Thanksgiving, a potluck or Christmas. Talk about the issues. Heathcare, self-care. Climate change and the impact of the livestock industry. We have all the proof we need…
Care2 should feel like home then. Vegans and anti-animal husbandry sentiment there are disconcerting to any shameless omnivore like myself…who happens to agree current ‘pharming’ practices are unsustainable and heading for the cliff. A biography of CIA chief / bankster Nelson Rockefeller and his adventures in corporate farming in central and south America will help illuminate prior experience in petroleum-dominated crop raising now augmented by atrocities cultured in Hawaii. See if you can find the video ‘The World According to Monsanto’ as it has a habit of being ‘lost’. Even ‘The Real Winner in Iraq was Monsanto’ had a switcheroo pulled. Once my link led to Monsanto H.Q. !
Not that it did when I posted it.
