Well, I did it for a little while, but it just isn't something I'm meant to do. But I can at least feel good about buying organic meats, free-range where applicable, and generally being aware of where my food comes from.

So, I still prefer veggies (and love meat alternatives!), but I gatta have meat now and then. 

I found it a bit scary to hear about the level of effect that the global production of beef has on greenhouse gas emissions!  Yikes!  Part of this is due to the land clearing to have a place to put your cattle, and the other main part goes to the actual animal flatulance (COW FARTING!!!).  Now, I've heard that some 'scientists' are working on finding a solution to fix this bovine farting issue, and have come up with a wonderous pill to give the animals to help them with this (Aside: Do you think they know they have a gas problem?).... However, apparently this wonderful pill is the size of a human fist.  Can you imagine?  Might need a little sumfin to wash THAT down with! Ewww....
