Can a Burger Help Solve Climate Change?
This article in the online version of the New Yorker will open in a new window

So, what do YOU think? We've actually been thinking along the same lines for some time now, which is why I stopped eating red and very fatty meats over a decade ago.

It's a fairly long read, but it has its merits. Red meat just isn't good for you, but still, millions, if not more around this dying globe we call home, eat red-meat. I group the need for red-meat the same as smoking: people continue to smoke though they fully realize they will most likely die a very slow, agonizing painful and awful death, but who's worrying about that now?

What have you done to improve your health and future? Are you a family member who decides what to cook for everyone? Are you helping to keep your family healthy, strong for a sustainable future where the planet as well as its inhabitants all being responsible and accountable, and treating themselves and other species with respect and care?

The main issue here though, is that WE, as a common group concerned for not only our welfare and well-being but of our sons and daughter who will eventually take our place on this dying choking world, should take a serious stand NOW to change our daily routine and routines, and change our diets now. Will the results of one family or even one community stop the earth from dying sometime after the year 2050?

Anyone who has a real concern for their personal health should be thinking of real actions to take, after reading this article. It seems that the year 2050 will be a turning point in the survival of the race we call Humans. Humans have created this problem, first with the development of the plastic product, then the destruction and healing of the ozone, and now the methods necessary to control and eventually STOP climate change throughout the planet.

I sincerely believe there are many who say all this talk and screaming about climate change and the greenhouse effect is all nonsense, but as we live in a world where constant change is the norm, and every season is an extreme of more and more floods, fires, and famine, every day should be built around a personal plan in what can WE each can do to call more attention to this, what will our personal actions be, and finally, can anyone actually convince each individual who calls this planet home, to make the change or die, or at least the children of our sons and daughters will be faced with a future world of extreme unknowns.

What will YOU do?
