Social Cause # 02 : Are you concerned about global warming &/ or the Earth ’ s imminent climate crisis ? Well , did you know that meat & dairy livestock are the number one producer of greenhouse gases – 40 % more than all the world ’ s cars , trucks & planes combined ? And did you know that a recent United Nations report concluded that an imminent and significant worldwide shift toward a plant-based diet is critical to preventing the most tragic consequences of the current climate shift ? Well , now you do .
“ If we take vegan action to stop global warming and it then turns out to be untrue , then at the very least we will have saved the lives of billions of animals , dramatically reduced air pollution , saved the pristinity of our drinking water aquifers and halted the loss of our forests ... On the other hand , if we don ’ t act – and soon , and global warming turns out to be even half as bad as most climatologists say it ’ s going to be , then our apathy will have essentially destroyed the future of our species .” ~ inspired by the words of Tony Blair
