Diet and Climate Change or Meat Is Heat
Dr. Michael Greger from NutritionFacts.org:
"While epidemics of chronic disease are currently by far our leading causes of death, global warming is considered a looming public health threat. How can we eat to combat dietary diseases and greenhouse gas emissions at the same time?"
Please take a look at this important video:
Now get a veggie burger instead of a cow burger,
do it for your health, for the animals, and for the planet!

Save Water, Eat Plants!
I am proud and thankful to be part of the Truth or Drought team
I design many of the graphics, the leaflets and lawn signs
we all volunteer our 'free' time...
we are a small group (mainly 3 people, lately 2 others are helping too)
we created this group to open people's eyes
to the fact that animal agriculture is causing the
devastating water shortages in California (and the planet)
All of our research is fully sourced by scientific research!
Here the latest graphic I created under Lorelei Plotczyk's supervision
and her superb research work. She writes and researches all the
graphics for T or D. I only make them a visual reality.
It is plain and simple: We (the entire planet) are running out of water. Animal agriculture uses a LOT of water and creates all sort of environmental problems, and needless cruelty & suffering, for both animals & humans. We can eat the plant protein directly and save water, stop the suffering, and heal our planet. Nowadays you can find vegan hamburgers in every supermarket, they taste better than the 'real' thing too and are healthier, you can find chicken-less chicken, all sorts of non-dairy cheeses, you can find cow milk substitutes (or make your own), you can find vegan cakes, cupcakes, donuts, pies, pancakes, etc. etc. etc. So if you eat animals is only because you are OK with violence, cruelty and destroying the planet, see?

I do this as a volunteer on my free time,
not that I have much as I work full time as a graphic designer
but since I became an activist for the animals
I truly enjoy working on graphics or talking to people
about not eating animals, or using them on any abusive way
or going to protests...

" World-renowned nutrition scientist and creator of
the glycemic index Dr. David Jenkins in The Globe and Mail on why he
advocates shifting to a plant-based vegan diet: "Human health must be
linked to planetary health, and how we feed ourselves has a major impact
on the planet...Our children and future generations will be horrified
that collectively we paid no attention to these issues."

World Water Day
Water is the most precious resource we have
In California we are living a 4th year of 'exceptional drought'
One way to save a lot of water is by eating a plant-based diet.
Animal Agriculture requires a lot of water and resources.
One quarter-pound hamburger takes 621 gallons of water to produce.
That's enough water to take over a month's worth of showers.
While a veggie burger (soy based) takes only42 gallons of water.
Both provide about the same amount of protein!
And the veggie burger has protein, it is healthier for you and our planet
Please visit the website Truth or Drought to better understand
the connection between animal agriculture and droughts.

Oceans collapse 2048 or Meat Out
For every 1 pound of fish caught,
an average of 5 pounds of other marine species
are caught, killed, and discarded.
NASA and National Graphic have studies
saying that our oceans might 'collapse' by 2048,
the amount of oxygen we find on the Earth's atmosphere
is related intrinsically with the acidity of the oceans.

Killing animals is finishing the planet
"Livestock species contribute directly and indirectly to deforestation, water pollution, air pollution, greenhouse gases, global warming, desertification, erosion and human obesity,
and virtually anywhere you go in the world, the damage done by
ruminants, pigs and poultry, and those who grow feed crops for them, is
visible on the land. Dry and scrubby Greece, once a nation of woodlands, has gone to the goats. In Brazil, forests are falling before the advance of soybean fields,
cultivated largely as beef fodder. In New Zealand, the banks of wild
streams are frequently found trampled and muddied by grazers."

People's Climate March San Diego
It was a great to see so many San Diegans
concerned about the environment yesterday
#ClimateMarchSD #ClimateMarch
And let's not forget that we can fight global warming
and climate change with our forks 3 times a day!
Animal agriculture causes 51% of greenhouse emissions.
Half of ALL the water used in the US goes to raise animals for food.
The UN has asked many times governments to promote
a diet free of meat and diary, please do your part!
It is as easy as choosing a veggie burger over a beef or chicken one!
More mindbogglingly facts about animal agriculture & our planet
Some of the posters me & my friends made yesterday for the March!

Is Veganism Extreme?
Is Veganism Extreme?
I'll tell you, and maybe if you read my blog years ago
I used to be SICK all the time
I had migraines, asthma, IBS, diverticulitis
allergies, horrible allergies! all the time
and I thought it was my poor cats
and I was always tired, always late, always unmotivated
I have been a vegan, not even a super healthy one
just a vegan, for a while now and
The migraines are GONE
The allergies are GONE
The IBS and diverticulitis attacks are GONE
I have more energy than when I was working-out but eating dead animals
and drinking yogurt
I feel so much more clear-minded, focus, and just happy & relaxed
And to confess, I thought being a vegan was hard, but it hasn't been at all!
There is so much food to eat that has NO animal products, really, there is!
You get all the protein you need from beans, tofu, nuts, grains, and veggies
Give it a try, you won't regret it!
You will feel young vibrant again, and you won't be torturing animals
nor contributing to the destruction of this planet!

Take Extinction Off Your Plate
Taken from: http://www.takeextinctionoffyourplate.com/
"Meat production is one of the main drivers of environmental degradation globally, and the crisis is rapidly growing worse. Production of beef, poultry, pork and other meats tripled between 1980 and 2010 and will likely double again by 2020. This ever-increasing meat consumption in a world of more than 7 billion people is already taking a staggering toll on wildlife, habitat, water resources, air quality and the climate. And Americans eat more meat per capita than almost anyone else. By eating less or no meat, we can take extinction off our plates and improve our own health along with the health of the planet."

we are eating the Planet and the animals
sometimes when I tell people that eating a vegan diet
can prevent world hunger they look at me strangely,
below is why
if we channel the Earth resources into
feeding cattle and chickens to later eat them,
we are literally wasting food
(and investing in animal cruelty too)
if you have children or care about this
overpopulated planet that is running out of water,
the choice is simple, Go Vegan or at least
reduce your consumption of dead animals to a minimum!
