Re: The solutions to Global Warming include. . .
the single biggest thing we as individuals can do to fight global warming is to go vegetarian. a recent UN report (fao.org/newsroom/en/news/2006/1000448/index.html) found that the livestock industry accounts for 18 percent of human-induced greenhouse gases (more than cars!), and a university of chicago study (chronicle.uchicago.edu/060511/veggie.shtml, geosci.uchicago.edu/%7Egidon/papers/nutri/nutri3.pdf) concluded that switching from a typical american diet to a vegetarian diet reduces your contribution to global warming more than if you switched from a regular car to a hybrid. not to mention all the other environmental damage done by the meat industry, or the horrific suffering of the animals.
