I do think too many people ignore environmentalism and world hunger as reasons behind being a vegetarian -- most folks assume all veggies simply are into animal rights, and that's all.<BR/><BR/>To add more fuel to your fire, (and I'm sure you already know this,) but having a world full of vegetarians wouldn't solve world hunger, unfortunately. War/civil unrest and lack of infrastructure in many developing nations is a huge cause for starvation, too. I saw it firsthand when I was in Haiti in April -- there were tons and tons of crates of USAID food sitting in port in Port-au-Prince, but the food was left to rot due to lack of infrastructure. There was no way to distribute the food to the hungry, especially the rural hungry, since the roads are so poor. There's also a huge clean water shortage, a huge gas shortage, and very little cooking fuel. Even if you got the rice to people, how are they going to cook it? It's such a shame, really.<BR/><BR/>We should all think veg, but think about what else we can do, too!Catherine Weberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05840408638057727714noreply@blogger.com
