A Vegan and a Hummer...

Adam Pasick writes Crunching the numbers on a vegan in a Hummer.

"‘Our meat eating is one of the most important contributors we make to climate change,’ said Pollan, who is best known for his book ‘The Omnivore’s Dilemma.’ ‘A vegan in a Hummer has a lighter carbon footprint than a beef eater in a Prius.’ It’s a great line and quite a mental image, one that wowed the audience and quickly  spread on Twitter. Too bad it’s not true."

Nice to see Pollan out there trying to correct things.
