vegetarian anyone? :p




eat less meat, heh..its healthier that way also :p then again, this goes beyond our own health. all of us have a moral imperative on sustainability matters.

"the poor cannot afford bread, rice or other staple foods, let alone meat, fish and a whole range of fruit and vegetables. What is an even more devastating fact is that the world actually produces enough food to feed the entire population but an enormous proportion of that food is used to feed livestock for the affluent first world markets....... .. it takes 13kg of grain to produce just 1kg of beef and 6kg of grains to produce 1kg of pork. Eighty percent of the world's soya beans are eaten by animals..." -excerpt from the special report, prime.

i don't think i can forgo meat altogether.. but i'll try to eat less meat..hmm and i'll commit to a vegan diet 1 week per month. wokay ~ 就这样!gradual change, easy does it !

btw, since ..... very long ago. i've always been super irked by those who waste food on camp games or wadever games. like throwing flour around.....using fruits or wadever. very super irritated. the last i remembered being irked was at a camp... and i was upset with myself for not speaking up. i did try to opt out, but i remembered being forced to go through those games somemore.... sighs, becos i did not provide the reason at that point in time. i wonder why. not very like me to not speak up. anyway i hope i don't come across these kinda things anymore...but if i do, i will definitely give these people a piece of my mind. for sure.

we've heard this a million times, people are
starving..but how many of us really do anything abt it? we just flick the responsibility to those whom we've elected as representatives...or just leave it to the other proactive ones. then ease our guilt by saying "i can't do much anyway..". we don't have to give, if its beyond our financial means..... for starters, we can do simple things like change our eating habits, don't have to stuff till super full, don't waste food, don't play with food, take only what you can eat...i think helps to a certain extent too.

ooh... okay...my mind suddenly wandered to the past while blogging and i got slightly worked up. haha.. okay.. im actually in a very relaxed state now. this post was pretty random cos i saw the article and wanted to share. din mean to write that much. hurrhurr..

i had a great weekend ! hope u all did too, ready for work again !

goodnight all ! ♥
