Prius Moment

According to University of Chicago research you can make an earth-friendly impact more easily by becoming vegan than by buying a Pruis. 28% of the typical American diet comes from animal sources (New Scientist, Dec. 17,2005). The great American omnivore diet creates nearly 1.5 tons more carbon dioxide per person per year than a vegan diet of the same number of calories.

If you just can't go vegan consider cutting down on the processed animal products or choose poultry over red meat. Your body will thank you and so will the environment.
