Pachauri is a vegetarian himself, and points out that <A href="http://www.upi.com/Science_News/2008/09/07/UN_ties_red_meat_to_global_warming/UPI-22641220806696/">greenhouse gas emissions and habitat destruction are associated with animal agriculture</A>. To most animal advocates, this is old news. Even to the United Nations, <A href="http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=20772&Cr=global&Cr1=environment">this is old news</A>. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://animalrights.about.com/b/2008/09/08/united-nations-eat-less-meat.htm">Most people don't think of global warming as an animal rights issue, but global 
warming is a threat to all wild and domestic animals</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://animalrights.about.com/b/2008/09/08/united-nations-eat-less-meat.htm"><P>Of course, being vegan is better than being vegetarian from both an environmental and animal rights standpoint. Buying eggs and dairy products would still support animal agriculture. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F12F9DE3-F91E-4E86-88C4-BCAF99335EE8/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
