This evening's lecture was about environmental issues that pertain to Global Issues and International Relations. Dr. P mentioned how our meat consumption causes more emissions and environmental damage than automobile emissions. I was honestly shocked. The average American eats about 2.2 lb's of meat a day. The U.S. processes about 10 billion animals a year for food. Dr. P said if we all decreased our meat consumption by about 20% its as if we switched from driving a Toyota Camry to a Toyota Prius. Thats huge reduction in emissions right there. I'm amazed.
The topic of global warming reminds me of a lecture I attended by Dr. Sherwood Roland. Dr. Roland is one of the three Nobel Prize recipients from UCI. He was awarded a Nobel for his work in atmospheric chemistry.
