It's not the actual nostril lick that should impress. It's the manual dexterity that counts.
In this day and age, the only ones who return to the earth are those whose family burn and scatter them, or those who suffer a tragedy like the women at the pickton farm. Otherwise, you're mummified. You don't go anywhere. You just lie there in your fancy box with you satin surrounding, doing nothing. Or, you're cremated, sealed in an urn, and buried. Where you simply stay.
There is a push for some enviro burials... biodegradable box, no embalming, buried a few feet down in a field or forest somewhere, but those are rare right now. Most people want their loved one perfectly preserved, sealed up tight. Maybe because we don't want them to move on? Become something else?
Of course if there is no possible way to change the outcome, then what would it matter what you gave up?
No... you must give up buying meat from Texans and selling Texans our meat.... trade practises are some of the biggest issues. The meat itself, if I head out to farmer joe's field, isn't the big environmental issue.

This is already happening in Canada-meat consumption is down and dropping.
A friend of mine went to work for a local all-natural grass fed ranch that markets it's products here in Greater Vancouver and she couldn't believe how many people never ate large chunks of beast anymore-bits and pieces Yes but no chunks.

Every day we see these simple solutions with no understanding of what is happening in
world. Really how many people do think will ever know about this so called study of no
meat eating means slowing global warming? There are billions of people on the planet
and even if you talked every member that is part of this forum it would not make one cow
pie difference to the planet. All these people who want to not eat meat, or drive their car,
or for that matter start their fireplace in winter, do not understand that one day of a forest
fire somewhere in this country, would wipe out all the benefit restricting those other things
from happening. I say lets cook a good stake and outlaw forest fires.
Studies like this are a giant waste of money.

A new study points to the environmental benefits of curbing one's carnivorous ways.
Consuming less meat could help slow global warming by reducing the number of livestock and thereby lowering the amount of methane emitted by animals, scientists said Thursday.Eating less meat, such as steak and hamburgers, would cut the gases emitted by cows that contribute to global warming, scientists say.
(CBC)
In an article in the Lancet, researchers said people should eat fewer steaks and hamburgers. Reducing global red meat consumption by 10 per cent, they said, would cut the gases emitted by cows, sheep and goats that contribute to global warming.
"We are at a significant tipping point," said Geri Brewster, a nutritionist at Northern Westchester Hospital in New York, who was not connected to the study. "If people knew that they were threatening the environment by eating more meat, they might think twice before ordering a burger."

How about it. Will you eat less meat to help the planet?

here's what I say to that: Bite Me!
:lol: Oh you'll still be able to make blue flames, just not nearly as much as a ruminant could, if it could light it's own flatus. :lol:
SInce my spirit animal is wolf I will if I don't get my daily intake of red meat. I once heard that a vegan diet will make you gay and am not willing to take a chance that it correct.
Does eating pussy count?
If we took every finding from some research group seriously we would be totally mad by now.
To start with, before they start on don't eat meat, the naive should be looking at those organic
labels in front of them I wonder how much of it is organic period. How many here realize that
almost of the of the organic food is never tested scientifically and no surprise visits are made
to organic farms. Can't tell me that all of them are honest. All the inspectors care about is
that the paper work is done properly. You will never get the world to veg out so not enough
to make a difference anyway
A friend of mine has twisted the peta statement to people eating tasty animals, think I will go
and have a burger now.
