A comment on Conversation: Can we sustain the population AND the ecosystem without converting to vegetarianism?
We strive to live in a higher consciousness and when we eat meat we cannot attain that. Even for medical reasons, a vegetarian diet is less prone to salmonella, ringworm and other heart and digestive diseases. Its easier to grow all the plants you need to sustain your diet in your own backyard. Our produce from any supermarket is infused with growth hormones, while the pure organic produce is mostly expensive. The way I see it, we should create a "Farmville" in the real world.
