Hi All,

Yesterday, I had a great conversation with Richard Schwartz about how eating a plant based diet can combat climate change, environmental disaster, and chronic disease. He has been a vegetarian for over 40 years and a vegan for 20 years, and is convinced that to save the human species, we must all switch over to a vegan diet. He is correct in his assertion of the horrible environmental impact the production of meat has on this planet, not to mention the inhumane treatment of animals raised in the industrial agriculture system. His approach from a Jewish perspective is very interesting. He quotes many passages from the scriptures in the hopes of reaching some people who otherwise would not be interested. I say, we need a myriad of people, all coming from different angles, to attract as many people as we can, in transitioning to a kinder, more environmentally friendly, and healthier diet, for the good of mankind and the planet!
