My brother always says that eating soy is worse for the climate than eating meat...

Man doesn't believe me when I say that like 90% of planted soy is consumed by farm animals and not by the "evil vegans who cut down the forest".

I'm at a keynote presentation about water concerns in New Mexico. Every minute that goes by that they don't address animal farming and consumption as a huge driver for all of these problems, my blood boils another degree hotter. Just needed to vent to a group of reasonable people.

I ended up participating in the group conversation afterwards and then some one-on-one discussion with leaders of the group. I feel a bit better about how things behind the scenes seem to be developing. I'm now also likely going to be working with the local advocacy group to put together newsletters and presentations geared towards educating and empowering individuals.

Kind of rant:
One guy I met from my town in Argentina, vegan for many years, said to me that before changing his diet, he had psoriasis and that he cured himself by making the change in eating.

Do any of you have alergies ? Have you seen any change since eating just plants ?

I see so many people alergic and they just acept it as like that is life. Even heard comments like "yeah I just hope the season past fast!", like the spring is the most beautiful season and you are hoping for it's end.

I don't have issues with allergies unless I'm eating a lot of processed stuff and not exercising regularly.
