Nothing short of a nuclear world war threatens our cherished way of life more than climate change. It is therefore not surprising that the most vociferous defenders of the comfortable assumptions that support the status quo tend to be those who profit the most from the existing set-up. These assumptions, already under severe strain from dire warnings by leading climate scientists, record-breaking ocean and air temperatures, melting ice, unabated deforestation, loss of species and calamitous weather events, are blown apart by Dr Stephen Emmott in his book  TEN BILLION , Richard Oppenlander in  Comfortably Unaware , Lester Brown in  Full Planet, Empty Plates  and J. Morris Hicks in  Healthy Eating, Healthy World . Each of these books explains with stunning clarity how we are coming up against the limits of a sustainable food system, with continuing rapid population growth and industrialization carrying a real danger of irreversible environmental harms leading to runaway global warmin

One of the happiest moments of my life, it has been spending time with the residents at the Catskills Animal sanctuary, a place where I can learn from animals to be a better human and realized that we are all the same. With Years I have met many of these animals, that I started feeling a strong bond with the. It is pure magic to know that there are many working hard to give thes lovely animals the Goodlife

This number’s almost certainly significantly quite low,” said Peter Lehner, managing attorney for EarthJustice, a non-profit environmental law firm. “Most other studies, including by the UN and others, say that agriculture contributes much closer to 15 or 20 percent or more of world greenhouse gas emissions.” Even those estimates may be low, Lehner argued in a Washington D.C.  briefing  hosted by the Environmental and Energy Study Institute, because most assessments don’t include these five sources of agricultural emi

I am once again amazed by how clear and direct words by Greta Thunberg at the UN yesterday. I can't help it not to stand up by her as an almost middle age lady with a young heart, who has been vegan for many years, for ethical, environmental climate reasons, health, and social justice reasons. As a vegan, I started spending a good amount of time, looking for clear facts, and the most shocking one was how much many businesses like the Animalagriculture and fishing are leading to massive extinction of species, leading to Climate change. It can be frustrated with the media and government being funded by these industries, however, many of us are tracking down scientistic facts, and try to spread the word. But, there was nothing like until Greta Thunberg came along, with uniqueness, youth, and courage, a great combo to the polluters of the world to wake up. Greta Thunberg was clear that she is a vegan for ethical, environmental and climate reasons, and her family went v

A must watch in all languages, a powerful film about humanity. This documentary introduces the truth of the reality of our human condition.  Many will turn their back to the truth, for chose to live a life in denial after all the reality is shocking. Awareness is everything. I no longer want to be part of this rash reality, every day I try my best to understand the animal Holocaust, under Nazi propaganda that makes us think and hide the cruelty and injustice toward, cruelty-towards animals. in the name of profit.  The solution to this problem is to go vegan and boycott all forms of animal exploitation and keep spreading to others through social media, tough fundraisers, events, street protests. Silent won't stop the against animals. Silent is the cause that animals keep going through horrific pain. We live in a society that normalizes animal cruelty, and not individuals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GGBFv0zw18&t=7s
