Veganism

Why did I go vegetarian?

We all want to help the planet. But how?

* Cows must consume 16 pounds of vegetation in order to convert them into 1 pound of flesh. Raising animals for food consumes more than half of all water used in the U.S. It takes 2,500 gallons of water to produce a pound of meat but only 25 gallons to produce a pound of wheat.

* Producing just one hamburger uses enough fossil fuel to drive a SMALL CAR 32 km.

#PlantBasedLifestyle

A typical pig factory generates the same amount of raw waste as a city of 12,000 people. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, raising animals for food is the number-one source of water POLLUTION

Land

degradation

Of all agricultural land in the U.S., 87 percent is used to raise animals for food. That’s 45 percent of the total land mass in the U.S. About 260 MILLION acres of U.S. forest have been cleared to create cropland to produce feed for animals raised for food. The meat industry is directly responsible for 85 percent of all soil erosion in the U.S.

"Switching to a diet free of meat, dairy, and eggs saves 50% more carbon emissions than driving a Prius."

To produce one pound of

animal protein vs.

one pound of soy protein,

it takes about

12 times as much land,

13 times as much fossil fuel, and

15 times as much water.

LIVESTOCK SECTOR

Raising animals for food (including land used for grazing and growing feed crops) now uses a staggering 30% of the Earth’s land mass.

Greenhouse gas

Anthropogenic ammonia(Ihmistoiminnasta ammoniakkia)

Nearly 80% of land deforested

in the Amazon is now used

as cattle pasture.

Why I didn't go vegan?

INDICATORS of dirty energy:

- Air pollution

- Land (soil) pollution

- Harmful impacts on health

- Water pollution (as well as underground water pollution)

- Improper usage of water sources – direct impact to climate change

- Energy waste (ash, nuclear waste)

- Waste of energy sources

False solutions:

Biofuels

Carbon Capture Storage (CCS)

Nuclear

Shale gas / gas

Biomass (co-firing)

Hydropower

Clean energy

Renewable Resources

Wind power

Tidal power

Wave power

Solar power

Every hour,

4 Million tons of CO2 are emitted

Every hour 24 million plastic bottles wasted

Every hour

Every hour,

10,000 people join the global population

Every hour,

3 species go extinct

(1000x faster than natural rates)

Every hour,

1,500 hectares of forests are cut
