Who is blaming #cows 🐄 for #carbon?

We should be blaming 🚗 ✈️ 🚤 🛻 🚀 ⚡️ 🏭 and manufacturing--not cows munching grass!

It's illogical and ridiculous!

We had ruminating animals #grazing Earth for millions of years before cars, airplanes and factories!
Grass itself "captures carbon" and puts it back in the ground!

As "carnivores" it's time to re-educate the vegan 🌱 community about nature!

Plants and grasses "inhale" CO2 and "exhale" oxygen.

Cows help fertilize and create grass!

To think otherwise is a special kind of ignorance about nature, farming and science!
See the lush, green grass that grows where COWS 🐄 graze?

How is this possibly causing global warming?

And most meat and dairy products are LOCAL shipped short distance.

Visiting my old home town and feeling lonely, I realize with heartbreak that most of my friends here have died.

Mostly vegan.

Mostly Cancer.

40s, 50s, 60s.

Too young.

Coincidence?
This the same town where I started innovating as a vegan caterer in 2003.

We have an outstanding vegan-centric all organic health food store with a vegetarian salad bar.
The area once had one of the top raw vegan restaurants, Lydia's Loving Foods.

As well as the pioneering Café Gratitude.

An outstanding farmer's market.

Even the food bank has organic produce!

When I first started #Veganism, I was 41, healthy and athletic. I did yoga daily. You might have called me "fit."

But I was freezing cold, even in summer sun, lost my period and went flat chested.

Something was wrong.

I was starving myself "for the animals."
I wore padding to disguise my totally flat chest.

My cheeks were hollow.

I covered cystic acne with makeup.

My hair fell out so I wore wigs.

I got collagen to fill my deep nasolabial folds.

So much denial.
I compared my body to fashion models, celebrities like Madonna or Sarah Jessica Parker. I didn't think I was too thin.

But the lack of body fat lead to hormonal issues.

Returning from a trip to attend memorial services for a dear vegetarian friend who died of Cancer.

Almost everyone I saw has Cancer, too.

And they all say:

“Why am I sick? I eat such a healthy diet, mostly fruit, vegetables and plant based!”
When I suggest it might be a chronic lack of protein, B-12, carnitine, carnosine, minerals, collagen, saturated fats and iron...and too much sugar and oxalates they are in complete denial. #vegan #cancer #breastcancer Image
I ate a lot of hummus, nut butter, tahini, rice, vegetables and fruit. (To be polite.)

I secretly cooked steaks on a small stove I travel with.
