Last year we all saw how the Internet helped TS, its members and theosophy
by revealing the secret plans to disenfranchise all of us and seize control
of the presidency by a small group of "leaders". Now Internet is helping
people to become vegetarians. Many theosophists would be interested in it.
Here is a recent article on it.

A recent CDC study says 1 in 200 kids are avoiding meat in the USA. It is
speculated that Internet Videos showing animal slaughter may contribute to
trend. Other surveys suggest the rate to be four to six times in older teens
who have more control over what they eat. According to the article published
in newsmedia, adolescent vegetarianism seems to be raising, thanks in part
to YouTube animal slaughter videos that shock the developing sensibilities
of many US children. According to previous studies,Vegetarians are most
often female, from higher-income families and living on East and West
Coasts. (Finally, women seem to be leading the trend!).
