Someone at Praxair gave a presentation on global warming and one of his suggestions was to eat less meat. That’s right. Eat less meat. Because that will have an impact.

The idea was that forests are cleared for cow pastures, so eating less meat would mean fewer cattle and thus fewer trees cut down. I guess it’s logical, I just think he can’t see the real magnitude of the problem because the tree he’s hugging is in the way.
