[Quaker15]

For those of you who have Netflix and saw the documentary "Cowspiracy," produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, what's your thought on it? Why are billions of animal lovers and environmentalists not teaming up to AT LEAST make more noise about it? The facts are virtually unknown to the public.

No one is responding to this thread, because no one knows what I am talking about. This is how little known this subject matter is.

Five minutes and thirty one seconds is way too much time to spend finding out what this is about.

Reduction, not elimination!

There are "environmentalists" who conserve water by flushing less, take shorter showers, etc. What they don't realize is that 1 hamburger = 2 months worth of shower in terms of water consumption.

I live in the eastern U.S. There is no shortage of water here. So for dinner tonight I'm going to have a thick juicy STEAK.
