National Vegetarian Week 21st-27th May

It's National Vegetarian Week this week!

The vegetarian society's website has an article on why it's green to go veggie which I like. Won't rant with the biased propaganda too much but think on these factoids...
  • Farmed animals produce more greenhouse gas emissions (18%) than the world’s entire transport system (13.5%).
  • Farmed animal production accounts for 70% of all agricultural land use (30% of the earth’s entire land surface).
Interesting stuff, check it out.
