Did you know, an animal-free diet produces at least 87% less greenhouse gas emissions thanthe averge meat diet. Does it make sense to subsidize something that simply isn’t sustainable? The following points are in the petitions but basically a veggie diet can: (a) end world hunger due to livestock production’s inefficient use of: water, grain, and soy thus causing water/food shortages - not to mention the inefficiencies in electricity and petroleum usage; (b) prevent: deforestation; soil degradation; oceanic dead zones; air and water pollution; climate change; (c) dramatically reduce health care costs (just go to a hospital and ask who there is a vegetarian - better yet vegan); (d) and the list goes on.
