Hi everyone,

 

We need some help

My niece, has asked me for some help on her paper.

 

I mentioned the largest contribution to green house gasses is animal

agriculture.

I referenced to her the United Nations Study, The Long Shadow of Animal

Agriculture.

 

This was a big surprise to her. And seems like a great opportunity for

her to find out for herself how damaging the standard american diet is

to the environment.

Please let me know if any of you know and good facts or sources of how,

from a Vegetarian perspective, the carbon foot print of Americans

changed from the late 1800's through 1945 to the present?

 

Peace,

 

Sam
