The NYTimes recently ran a great article, by a non-vegetarian, about how the meat industry is actually contributing more to global warming than the transportation industry! The reduction of the globe's rainforests if caused by needing ranches for cattle. Dairy is sustainable because you don't kill the cow to get the milk, but I still try to get my milk locally and from cows that are happy and well taken care of (Horizon is mean to their cows!)
