“The American fast food diet and the meat eating habits of the wealthy around the world support a world food system that diverts food resources from the hungry. A diet higher in whole grains and legumes and lower in beef and other meat is not just healthier for ourselves but also contributes to changing the world system that feeds some people and leaves others hungry.” PeopleWorldWholeWealthSupportHabitHigherEatingResourcesHungerHungryAround The WorldMeatDietsChanging The WorldWealthyVegetarianVeganGrainVegetarianismBeefFast FoodWorld HungerVegan DietEating HabitsVegan HealthMeat EatingVegan FoodEnding HungerHunger For FoodFood BanksWhole GrainsHunger In AmericaAmerican Food Author:Walden Bello

“It is not just that it is profoundly offensive to the leaders and people of a democratic Germany to paint Hitler on the wall (or on the remnants of the Wall). It is also consummately counterproductive. Such sauce does not make the meat of substantive criticism more interesting. It means that the whole dish is pushed away. It does not mean that Britain's voice is listened to more attentively in the councils of Europe. It means that it is listened to even less.” PeopleMeanDoeWholeVoiceInterestingLeaderWallEuropeCriticismDemocraticPaintMeatGermanyBritainDishesOffensiveCouncilSauceRemnantsCounterproductivePushed Away Author:Timothy Garton Ash
“Sentimentalising is anathema, as far as I am concerned. It leads you into ethical problems about violence and killing and eating meat. The whole world becomes topsy-survy if you impose moralities that were evolved within human society on what a blowfly or what a parasite does... there are lots of emotions you can deduce from an animal's behaviour that are correct, but when you start saying it's feeling guilty or thinking or a loved one or mourning, you must be very careful of those feelings.” IfsThinkingWorldHumansDoeWholeFeelingsProblemAnimalEmotionViolenceTelevisionMoralityEatingConcernedKillingCarefulWhole WorldGuiltyMeatMourningEthicalLoved OnesBehaviourHuman SocietyParasitesEating MeatFeeling GuiltyAnathema Author:David Attenborough
