To find out if a switch to veganism can really slow global warming, Rachel meets the devoted animal campaigners fueling the fight... Will they convince her to go vegan to help save the planet?

Educate yourself and grow

This podcast is a great way of educating yourself about the pros and cons of agriculture and the meat industry. It's presented in a simple, unbiased way that gives everyone (carnivores and vegans) a chance to present their way of living and eating. By doing so it allows you to choose your path and learn that not everything (including food) is black and white. Thank you, Rachel!

Really prompted discussion

This was even better than I hoped it would be. They presented all sides of the argument equally but without being preachy. It went a lot deeper than "is killing animals bad?" or "are you helping save the planet?" It answered some questions I have and left me with new questions and things to look into. It wrapped up without telling you what the right answer is, leaving space for each person to choose for themselves.

Vegetarian propaganda

This is a vegetarian propaganda podcast in disguise, sneakily, under the disguise of objectivity, trying to promote the idea that eating meat is bad for the planet. Nothing is further from truth.
Animals coevolved with humans and in agriculture they regenerate the soil. Cattle is carbon negative, if grass fed.
Regardless, meat is the most nutrient dense superfood there is and the one we evolved to eat.
Read Weston A. Price’s groundbreaking book, Nutrition and Physical Degeneration, to see how traditional humans ate and how healthy this food made them, and what happened if they started incorporating the food of modern commerce. Read Stefensson’s Not by Bread Alone ( The Fat of the Land) to see that a person can be healthy and well on meat and fat alone, moreover, cure from ailments that way. Please educate yourself and don’t give up to the vegetarian propaganda!
