Climate chief Lord Stern: give up meat to save the planet



Here is an interesting article on the subject. Like smoking getting out of

fashion, meat eating may also go the same way in the years to come. Lord

Stern, former chief economist of World Bank says:



People will need to consider turning vegetarian if the world is to conquer

climate change, according to a leading authority on global warming.



He predicted that peopleâs attitudes would evolve until meat eating became

unacceptable. âI think itâs important that people think about what they are

doing and that includes what they are eating,â he said. âI am 61 now and

attitudes towards drinking and driving have changed radically since I was a

student. People change their notion of what is responsible. They will

increasingly ask about the carbon content of their food.â
