We often read about pollution, land destruction, plastics polluting our waterways, however, not often do we hear about livestock pollution. This is an interesting read to ponder. Living off of the land was a way of life and many are pushing to eat and buy 'local' and eat like our past generations --- more fish, meat, vegetables and less packaged, processed foods...
If a river was polluted by any other industry than farming, there’d be outrage. But we don’t want to know about the impact of our livestock.
Eat less meat and fish, drink less milk. No request could be simpler, or more consequential. Nothing we do has greater potential for reducing our impacts on the living planet. Yet no request is more likely to elicit a baffled, hurt or furious response.
