Could you be a vegetarian for one day a week? |

That was the suggestion expressed to those who attended a presentation on Global Warming and Renewable energy at the Chung Tai Zen Center a week or so ago. While participating in a panel discussion explaining a Jewish point a view I made the statement that there was a time that one ate meat at the most once a week or on special occasions. So it hit me that the campaign should be that we eat meat only day a week and eat vegetarian the rest of the time. Why? For we over eat meat in our society and it takes so much of our resources to produce meat and that which animals leave behind also contributes to pollution of our water table and our environment. Also we have less farm land for producing food for people. Could you be vegetarian six days a week?
