'EATING UP THE WORLD' BOOKLET
At the 2009
Sustainable Living Festival VNV launched its booklet highlighting the effects of animal
products on the planet. The booklet has been so successful that a 3rd
edition has recently been printed. That's 135,000 copies printed so far!
The 16 page booklet,
titled 'Eating up the World: the Environmental Consequences of Human
Food Choices', raises issues of land exhaustion, air pollution, and
ocean depletion among others such as species extinction, water, energy
and materials expenditure, and the social impacts - all stemming from
human dietary choices. The revised edition of the booklet is now available online. (more)
