"The percentage of vegetarians has doubled since 1994," says John Cunningham, consumer research manager for the organization. Elizabeth Turner, editor in chief of Vegetarian Times, says: "A much larger number of people -- 22 million based on a poll the magazine did in 2008 -- are what I'd describe as vegetarian-inclined. These are the people who might have the occasional chicken or fish. They're interested in vegetarianism and moving in a veg direction, but they aren't all the way there yet.

MEAT THE TRUTH - vídeonota 3 minutos sobre el documental - 0 views
-
Vídeo de 3 minutos realizado por TVE sobre el documental Meat the Truth, donde se toca el tema que Al Gore no quiso tocar en su documental sobre el estropicio que estamos haciendo al planeta. Al Gore cría vacas, por lo que no le interesa destacar que el 18% de los gases de efecto invernadero los producen las vacas.

Cada res produce casi 250 litros de metano cada día. Lo que supone a nivel mundial una emisión de 300.000 millones de litros de gases de efecto invernadero. Miles de millones de ovejas y cabras elevan la tasa de emisión global de metano hasta aproximadamente 150 billones de litros al año. Por ello la pregunta decisiva para nuestro futuro es: ¿queremos continuar teniendo el filete diario en el plato y permitirnos mil quinientos millones de reses a nivel planetario. Si aún es posible frenar el cambio climático, tendrán que ser tenidos en cuenta los factores principales.

Interview with PETA Official Bruce Friedrich - The Stanford Progressive - 0 views

That's an interesting eventual philosophical discussion. Obviously, with animals rights we don't mean the same as human rights like liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Attempting to figure out precisely how one would apply those as inalienable rights to animals is going to be very difficult. What PETA has focused on and what the animal rights movement has focused on is the right of animals not to be eaten, worn, or experimented on (unless it is in their own best interest—similar to experiments which involve human beings), and not to be used as a mean of human amusement. And there are going to be some grey areas. One of the big grey areas right now is the fact that about 8 million animals are dropped off at shelters every year but there are only homes for about 4 million of them. So what do you do with the other 4 million animals? We know that if they were turned loose on the streets most would die horrible deaths. There aren't old feral cats, and thus, right now, until we can create a world in which people are not breeding animals and selling animals, in which everyone is going to a shelter to adopt an animal, it is in those animals best interest to be humanely euthanized. So there are some grey areas, there are some dicey discussions to be had, but at the end of the day eating animals, wearing animals, experimenting on animals—those are pretty easy philosophical and scientific discussions to have.
