'Is bacon vegan?' - Oprah

by **beltic caldy** » Thu, 03 Feb 2011 08:29

aye....don't think it was a question from the perspective of her wanting to know the answer herself, but perhaps rather an attempt to inform?

who'd have guessed this chap was all critter-friendly!!!!!?!!!!!

Oh, and the answer, which from the context of the question is slightly obvious I suppose (never mind the questioner...!) is, of course - get rid of the dog, as the carbon footprint for the fella is about the same as an average family sized car - it's not much the dog itself, as the meat used to feed the little/big fella over the course of it's life.

And yes, removing one of the humans would have the biggest impact, but i did say 'legal' in the question.

vegan-friendly t-shirts to all the winners are...aherm, in the post.

:wink:

rich

ps - fair play to Oprah and company - some 300 out of the 380 or so staff apparently managed it for a week!!

A week is just like a day for Oprah in their Vegan Challenge. There’s nothing wrong about being a vegetarian. In fact, this will make you healthy.

Meat-eating family of 2 parents, 1 child, 1 dog, 2 family-sized cars....what (legal) change would most result in reduction of their carbon footprint?
