If we were too concerned about whether we have the right to kill an animal to feed our family and allow the human species to grow and evolve thanks to vital complete amino acids only found in meat.. then we'd still be chimps living in trees.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-55488445690823958142011-08-17T03:03:36.380+10:002011-08-17T03:03:36.380+10:00I was very excited to come across a dietician who ...<b>I was very excited to come across a dietician who is concerned about the environmental impact of diet. </b> <br /><br />Developing ideas, suggestions and strategy by integrating the research and findings from various scientific disciplines is indeed a <i>recipe for success</i>, and a good counter to the blinkered, "frog in the well" approach. <br /><br /><b>I will certainly be taking on board Nicole's takeout message.</b><br /><br />At the same time, although I'm not currently a vegetarian, I do feel the ethical argument against eating meat shouldn't be so lightly dismissed as being "infused with emotion and ideology". Humans accept that, in general, we have no right to kill other human beings. Are we so anthropocentric that we cannot consider extending this principle to other animals? What right do we have to cut short the life of a young calf, lamb or piglet? After all, they also have a brain and nervous system not so different from ours. <br /><br />Perhaps we humans should take more seriously the idea of harvesting the oceans for vegetable protein.Richard Buckdalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06649065789441147581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-63623297435034815502011-08-16T22:51:11.269+10:002011-08-16T22:51:11.269+10:00Veganism is not an extreme.

The diseases (and crazy treatment plans) that come from eating the standard western diet are extreme!!<br /><br />Veganism is actually only extreme in being extremely healthy and most vegans are so clued up on nutrition that in real terms, very few indeed suffer from deficiencies. It interests me that when deficiencies are mentioned among vegetarians, it's frequently from countries where food resources are poorer and the general diet is too lop-sided for balanced nutrition. Therein lies the blame - NOT the lack of animal foods.Elizabeth Braunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04067860880479674275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-3772128375441597662011-08-16T22:02:44.047+10:002011-08-16T22:02:44.047+10:00What has greenhouse gas emmissions to do with red ...What has greenhouse gas emmissions to do with red meat ??

Though you make some VERY fascinating points, you're going to have to do more than bring up a few things that may be different than what weve already heard. What are trying to say here? What do you want us to hink? It seems like you cant really get behind a unique thought. Anyway, that's just my opinion.CareSharehttp://www.careshareblog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-83052645898058048312011-08-08T14:19:53.457+10:002011-08-08T14:19:53.457+10:00excellent article! we all got to tread as lighlty ...excellent article! we all got to tread as lighlty on this earth as possible...;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-84857575983730048242011-08-02T20:05:16.846+10:002011-08-02T20:05:16.846+10:00Thank you JoanThank you JoanGI Grouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07609354784645028388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-66345862314382554262011-08-02T00:47:58.829+10:002011-08-02T00:47:58.829+10:00I am a farm woman in Nebraska.

Each animal is cared for more than many humans on our planet. They received a balanced diet each day according to their age and size. The cattle are monitored daily for any signs of sickness. Cattle adjust quickly to temperature and weather changes. We still do all we can to make certain the animals have plenty of room to lay down and move around the pen. Most people think of a factory farm as something that crowds animals and causes abuse. I would encourage you to remember that the majority of us in livestock production take very good care of our animals. There are bad apples in every group of people/careers so we just keep doing what we can to weed them out. Thank you for keeping meat in the diet as too many people are missing out on the wonderful benefits of ZIP-zinc, iron and protein!Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023521791278504375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13473599.post-53849833257851918422011-08-01T15:47:32.724+10:002011-08-01T15:47:32.724+10:00Very good article.......truly is 'food for tho...Very good article.......truly is 'food for thought'.Gregnoreply@blogger.com
