Earth to PETA

Meat is not the No. 1 cause of global warming. Yet our diet is cooking the planet, and one surprising staple turns down the heat.

    This is why all of it is B.S.

    I wish I had the time to write a nice, long, cited, formal response but for lack of all that this is what I have to say:

    Not only does PETA show themselves to be either ignorant, insane, and/or propagandizers, it also shows the lunacy of the whole Socio-Politico-Economic TREND which the "Global Warming Game" has become. (I don't deny climate change-but so far the interpretations are crap).

    I AM A VEGETARIAN - just want to throw that out in case anyone wishes to point fingers at me. What I know is: VEGETARIANS PRODUCE MORE METHANE THAN THOSE WHO ARE HOOKED ON MEAT (FLESH).

    I don't preach - I don't wish to force you to not eat meat (just like I don't want you trying to force me to stop smoking cigars and drinking)... THIS WHOLE THING IS JUST LUNACY!!!

    (And what's the deal with driving around in an Hummer anyway???!!!)
