Bruce Friedrich: How Is Eating Meat Affecting Our Planet?

If I don't eat my burger, there will be more cows. More cows means more farting. More farting means more problems with global warming. I am doing a public service every time I eat my favorite burger.

What's never discussed is what would the impact be if we didn't eat meat. Nobody considers the economic and ecological impacts of having too many animals on the planet. Are we causing harm to our planet, sure. But not at the alarming rate these people say we're doing it.

Just last night I went to the best steakhouse here and had a filet, medium rare, sautéed mushrooms, aspergrass, and a tossed salad.
Wonderful!
