Livestock or Deathstock

Many experts are saying that livestock is a bigger culprit to global
warming than cars. 26% of land not covered by ice or water and
33% of arable land is devoted to grazing.It takes more land to
feed live stock than humans. 80% of corn,90% of soy, and70% of
grains are used for live stock instead of humans.

Not only does livestock make land more scarce, but it also a major
factor in land, water and air pollution. Some experts say methane gas
is 23 times worse than CO2. The chemicals, insecticides, and hormones
used in raising livestock gets into our ground water.This makes water
more scarce.

Live stock is a double whammy to global warming, because it is the major
reason for the destruction of the rain forests. Rain forests act as the earth's
lungs.60%-70% of Brazil's rain forest destruction is due to livestock use.

So eat more vegetables and less meat. You will have better health. Save
money in health cost. You will also be better stewards to the planet.
