- Air pollution causes acid rain. - Nobody likes "smog alert" days in large cities (LA, NYC, Toronto, etc). Everyone agrees that breathing in smog is bad. - Burning coal releases radioactive isotopes into the atmosphere. - Air pollution causes ocean acidification. This has the potential to wipe out entire species / aquatic ecosystems. - Ocean dead zones are bad. Stop producing - Significant amounts of methane come from 'cow farts.' Farming livestock for food makes less sense than farming plants. It takes more farmland to support livestock (e.g. something like 1000 lbs plants to produce 100 lbs of meat). [Not to mention all of the freshwater issues with irrigating all of the extra land used to feed the livestock.] - Deforestation of topic rain forests in Indonesia need to stop because they are destroying Orangutan habitat, causing a possible extinction (except for those in captivity / zoos). - Deforestation of the Amazon to make way for farmland / livestock grazing area needs to stop. It contributes a signification portion of the oxygen that we breath to the atmosphere.

Then we asap need to invent replicators. Because I work in fine job I need several people to support my lifestyle, so easiest is to find short term solution, burning something to return heat. Meat should go back to premium status, grass fed cattle that eats and shits on same field, in that way no need to grow huge fields of corn that needs to be sprayed with poison and fed with manufactured manure. Hemp for paper and fiber, absorbs your CO2 in huge amounts and needs no pesticide, can be used as to feed livestock in moderate amount of farms, worked well some time ago for farmers, until was forcibly taken out. There is plenty of solutions that would be wonderful, but are you ready to go from your luxurious lifestyle to dry toilet and washing yourself once a week? Sometimes I think it has nothing to do with our advancement in technology but loss of respect to each other.

  | Meat should go back to premium status It's funny that so many people don't realize this fact. People nowadays act like throughout the entirety of human history we've eaten nothing but meat, and people that choose to be vegetarian or vegan are somehow 'unnatural' because eating hamburgers, and steaks 365 days a year is the natural state of human being.
