Malediction of Caring
andy| June 25, 2008 9:22 amVegan Freak is a great book and a must read for any vegan wannabe, vegetarian, a family member of vegan, or somebody who cares about animals in any way. In addition to the book, there is also a great website with forums and other useful information. It also contains Vegan Freak Radio, which is a lighthearted weekly podcast on all things vegan.
In the last Vegan Freak Radio show (June 20th), hosts Bob and Jenna talked to Professor Gary L. Francione. Dr. Francione is a great spokesperson for abolition of animal exploitation.
This was a great interview and worth listening whether you are vegan or not.
Minatory Danger of Meat Production
andy| June 18, 2008 5:07 pmWhy is the vegetable being vilified?
To quote Dan Brook: “As with e. coli, the media seem to blame vegetables (spinach, scallions, now tomatoes), but the culprit is the farming of animals for meat, especially factory farming.”
Also, from Latina Viva Health: “…, animal waste can get into fields in the form of run-off from contaminated water supply systems and infected animals that sneak in and relieve themselves.”
So, go Vegan!!
Anathema to Humanity

So, time to make some New Year resolutions. Here they are:
