The real negative impact that the over-crowded, bloated, devil-may-care meat industry has on the environment is something it seems most North Americans either don't know or refuse to even look into or believe. I am surprised the article dodged that point so hard. From a wildly inflated cow population fed a completely unnatural diet and the ridiculous amounts of methane that produces, to piles and piles of feces running off in the rain and getting into your vegetables days before its picked to having way too few trees because the land is used to grow animal feed....the meat industry is killing us.

I agree N. Goodman, and I see the root cause of this is the equally inlafted human population that fights off natural controls with science and pollutes the environmant with that same science.

Small reductions in spending on meat probably co-related to the increase in the price of red meat, secondly the amount of fish being consumed is increasing, consumers are probably replacing higher priced red meat with fish.
And its already starting to be proven these so called "healthy" alternatives are full of salt and other health depleting substances.
The word here is COULD, like most hysteria being pushed about the environment this statement could well and truly being another exaggeration.

While some folk might mistakenly think some kind of mass-produced, highly-processed pseudo-food is somehow 'healthier' than real food, the gist of the article isn't about people wanting a healthy diet, it's about people not wanting to muck up the environment any more than we already have done.
Oh I see, you're one of those. Sorry, I thought you were being serious.

And I have been getting interested in the carnivore diet; haven't adopted it but I am eating more meat than I used to, and I certainly plan to continue...

There is No way on God’s green Earth that I would ever give up eating meat, but if people want to, their choice and that’s just more meat for me. I will cut down on my veggie intake that’s my contribution for the environment.
