It’s all one big ball of wax…! Our wax.
the stats for climatic changes are indeed quite alarming..this will create some awareness in society, i think
Apologies for commenting so long after this post…I just now ran across your blog. I was looking at your tagged topics and was surprised to not find any mention of veganism there. In this post there are multiple statements about climate change but none about the amount of damage done to the climate by the practice of animal agriculture. Am I overlooking something?
If so, my apologies, if not…could you write a bit about why?
Thanks.
Veganelder, you are so very correct to point out how the practice of animal agriculture has been horrible for the environment and one of the key factors contributing to climate change. I have mentioned this quite a bit in my classes and some on facebook, but it requires much more attention in my writings on this blog. Thank you for pointing that out to me. Gratefully, Mark.
