SFPD,

Ive been vegan now for two decades.
You are correct that vegans are beginning to take over the planet. Soon our work of providing the meat eaters of the world with poison and toxic laden fast foods and virus infected dead animal products our species will slowly evolve back to our great ape dispositions of being vegan.
Vegans live 8 to 10 years longer than the diseased ridden cancerous bodies of animal flesh and dairy drinkers do.

Stop eating animals and evolve...Go vegan and help take back the planet!!!

My wife's a seafoodatarian. She does not condem people who eat meat. She cooks and serves meat. She just choses not to eat it for a variety of reasons.

What annoys me about "vegetarians" are how so many of them are sanctimoniously self-righteous in a profoundly rude way. They'd get a lot more support from us omnivores if they learned to stuff a cork in it, if you know what I mean. Besides, the percentage who understand the difference between carbon's short cycle and long cycle approaches zero and being informed about this distinction is vital for a proper and accurate portrayal of the subject of most of that sanctimony; the atmosphere.

Meanwhile, I really enjoy virtually all "vegetarian" meals....

We all must act now to stop the vegetarians from destroying the planet. Through massive consumption of beans and other foliage, vegetarians emit enough methane gas to give them a carbon footprint 3 to 4 times higher than carnivoires. Also, every plant that they eat impairs the earths ability to control the carbon levels in the atmosphere. The vegans are causing the ocean to rise and are killing polar bears at an alarming rate. Go to www.stopveganism.org and make a difference before it is too late.....the polar bears are depending on you!

Humans are carbon neutral and give off only what they take in. The primary source of human-made CO2 is from burning carbon from geological deposits which releases CO2 into the atmosphere where it collects and transforms light energy into heat energy.
