媒體報導肉與氣候變遷   

Halo and welcome, eco-conscious viewers. In its November 1999 issue, TIMEMagazine published a set of articles that presented what life might be like in the 21st century.
It asked: Will robots make house calls?
Will we live on Mars?
Will we still read paper books?
In one of the articles, Ed Ayres then editorial director of the Worldwatch Institute and author of 『God's Last Offer: Negotiating for a Sustainable Future,』 posed a startling question:
『Will We Still Eat Meat?』

VO: 『Will We Still Eat Meat?Maybe not, if we wake up to what the mass production of animal flesh is doing to our health—and the planet's』

By Ed Ayres 『When Julius Caesar made his triumphal entrance into Rome in 45 B.C., he celebrated by giving a feast at which thousands of guests gorged on poultryseafood and game. Similar celebrations featuring exorbitant consumption of animal flesh have marked human victories—in war, sport, politics and commerce—since our species learned to control fire.

Throughout the developing world today one of the first things people do as they climb out of poverty is to shift from their peasant diet of mainly grains and beans to one that is rich in pork or beef.

Since 1950, per capita consumption of meat around the globe has more than doubled.… But in the coming century, that will change. Much as we have awakened to the full economic and social costs of cigarettes, we will find we can no longer subsidize or ignore the costs of mass-producing cattle, poultry, pigs, sheep and fish to feed our growing population.

These costs include hugely inefficient use of freshwater and land, heavy pollution from livestock feces, rising rates of heart disease and other degenerative illnesses,and spreading destruction of the forests on which much of our planet's life depends.』
