Aspiring To Inspire Before We Expire ~ Eco-Warriors 2012!: The Real Price of MEAT!

Aspiring To Inspire Before We Expire ~ Eco-Warriors 2012!: The Real Price of MEAT!: "Statistics: If every American (300 million) gave up meat for 1 day a week, this would have the same positive effect on reducing greenhouse gases as saving 90 million plane tickets from New York to Los Angeles! (source: “Meat the Truth” documentary, video clip) [1]

**Price of Meat is about the cost of meat on global warming and what people and governments are doing to reduce it’s production and consumption.

Livestock production is the #2 cause of greenhouse gas emissions, more than the emissions from all forms of transportation combined (UN). In addition, livestock production is the #1 source of anthropogenic (human-based) methane emissions, which is a gas that has 20 times the heat-trapping power (GWP) of CO2."
