Honoring the Paris Climate Accord

Editor,

Are you, too, fighting mad about Trump pulling the U.S. out of the Paris

climate accord? Then let’s fight back three times a day by adopting an

eco-friendly plant-based diet.

Yes, our diet is pivotal.  A 2010 United Nations report blames animal

agriculture for 19% of greenhouse gas emissions, 38% of land use, and

70% of global freshwater consumption.

Carbon dioxide is emitted by burning forests to create animal pastures

and by fossil fuels combustion to operate farm machinery, trucks,

factory farms, and slaughterhouses. The more damaging methane and

nitrous oxide are released from digestive tracts of cattle and from

animal waste cesspools, respectively.

In an environmentally sustainable world, meat and dairy products in our

diet must be replaced by vegetables, fruits, and grains, just as fossil

fuels are replaced by wind, solar, and other pollution-free energy

sources.

Each of us has the power to protest Trump’s failure to maintain

America’s leadership in moderating climate change, simply and

effectively, by what we choose at the grocery store.

  1. IF “climate change environmentalism” were not a complete fraud, then all of the proponents should stop taking vacations, stop driving to entertainment venues of every kind and type, stop calling for others to drive to your plays, and shows, and art museums, and beaches, and restaurants, and movies, and parks and recreational facilities of all kinds. Unemployment would skyrocket, and along with it, misery, and poverty, but would anything be gained? Anything at all?
    Of course not. Take Secretary of State John Kerry’s word for it.

    John Kerry states U.S. can do nothing about climate change even if all Americans stop using all fossil fuels.
