IT IS TIME TO TAKE ACTION!

By: Jim Buchanan

Evidence of climate change, and increasingly dire scientific studies, should compel us to take urgent action.  If we continue on the current path coastal cities and millions of people will be underwater before the end of this century.  The problem is that the ice is melting faster than previously thought, and at an accelerating rate.  This latest study, although a bit technical, is further evidence.

One big challenge for most of us is knowing what we can do to help.  Certainly drive less and walk or bike more.  Recycle and be more responsible about our overall consumption.  Reduce our so-called Carbon Footprint.  

But, there is one BIG thing we can do that will help the planet and our health and energy levels.  Eat more vegetables and less meat.  Few people know that the global meat industry is one of the primary contributors of global warming.  It also has a very negative impact on fresh water supplies (another huge environmental problem for this century) and pollution from waste runoff and toxic chemicals.

There are many, many studies out to confirm the positive impact of Veganism on the environment.  There are also a multitude of studies that prove less meat and more vegetables in our diet improves health and overall longevity.  It is time to make the switch!

As a Vegan I have found it to now be super easy to embrace this Way of Living each and every day.  And, I travel constantly for business and still find plenty of options for each meal.  So, no more excuses!  

You can do this.  Eat more vegetables and less meat.  You'll lose weight, have more energy, live longer and help heal the earth.  There is nothing more important you could do starting today!
