Yes, so you probably thought there was going to be something interesting in my post. There's not. And that's my problem... I chose this as a project for Environmental Science class, and so far I haven't had much luck finding sources. I have two that have been helpful so far, one being a book by the FAO, but if any of you have any suggestions (especially web sites), I would be ultra grateful. I'm really looking for estimations of what a "perfect vegan world" would be like environmentally.

My plan is to show the class why vegetarianism is a better choice for the environment without invading their moral comfort zones. I want to bring in "chik'n nuggets" or something of the sort... maybe vegan ice cream.

But yes, I'd love to hear your suggestions!

Read John Robbins' "The Food Revolution" and the EarthWatch website.
