HOST:
As the global warming time clock ticks towards midnight, courageous individuals have been alerting humanity to the urgency of the climate change crisis, and the solution.

Among them, Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri is one of the most outspoken and committed environmentalists in our world today. He is also a vegetarian with a heart for both humans and animals. In his public appearances around the world, Dr. Pachauri has again and again affirmed  the plant-based diet as a main solution to global warming.

Dr. Rajendra Pachauri (M): And therefore I always say if you eat less meat, you will be healthier and so will the planet.
Dr. Pachauri (m): The entire meat cycle is a great source of emissions of greenhouse gases. And I think we would be much better off as a society if we reduced, and if possible, did away with the use of meat, the use of animal proteins in human diets.
Because we would be much healthier, the planet would be much healthier, and we know that this is one very effective way by which we can bring under control the changes in climate that are taking place as a result of human actions.
