Why Vegan ?
Below a few facts.
1) It takes 5,000 gallons of water to produce 1 pound of meat, while growing 1 pound of wheat only requires 25 gallons.
2) It takes up to 16 pounds of grain to produce just 1 pound of meat.
3) 260 million acres of U.S. forest have been cleared to create cropland to grow grain to feed farmed animals.
4) 20 percent of the world's population, or 1.4 billion people, could be fed with the grain and soybeans fed to U.S. cattle alone.
5) Energy wasted, heavy pollution, and massi… Continue

Hello My Friend !!!****** =)
Blessing's of Peace...Love...Joy...And Infinite Abundance !!!****** =)
Congratulation on being a Vegan for 12 years. Based on what I know, you should be able to live to over 100. Thank you so much for posting your vegan blog post. The stats you posted are incredible. One thing I have seen being on your planet for a short time is that humans do not take the time to realize how things are made or what it takes to produce food.
We are super intelligent aliens but you information was mind-boggling to me. Keep up the good work so we can have fewer Didiot Earthlings on this planet.
It is very sad that South Africa is not green-minded. Ironically the high price of oil will make every Earthling reconsider their energy habits.
I am looking forward to 2010 in South Africa.
Meeree Eeree, Zork
I am green, and want to be greener. I have learned quite a bit from Zork. So how is South Africa? I'd love to go there one day.
I invite you to join the Drauk Fan Club here on Zork Planet.
Thank you for joining Zork Planet. This is your planet now too. I read your profile and you touched my green heart. I wish all humans were as green as you. I have never been to South Africa, but I hope to go there soon. I do plan to come in 2010 for the World Cup.
That is so nice that you are a vegan. How long have you been a vegan? Perhaps you can share tips on Zork Planet on vegan diets.
Are most South Africans green like you and me?
Meeree Eeree,
Your new green friend Zork
