Food for Thought

The other day I was reading my thermodynamics book.

As I read over a section about green house gases and our responsibility to take care of the earth, it reminded me of something. I once heard that the methane that is released from cows affects the environment more than humans do. I checked with my friend, he had heard this too, so it must be true. This got me thinking-

In order to help protect the environment we need to eat more meat!

I like this idea. If everyone in the world increases the amount of beef they eat, we will get rid of more cows. Less cows = reduced global warming. This caused me to think even more. Does this mean that vegetarians are slowly going to kill off mankind? Probably not, but all that meat they aren't eating is just aiding in global warming. I also believe that places like Tucanos should receive some kind of tax break for their efforts in preventing the destruction life on earth by serving up as much meat as they possibly can. Just think, without their aid, the earth could have already risen another degree, maybe more! In an effort to show our devotion in protecting our earth, we should all go out and eat as much beef as we can. Right now. Go do it. And if by chance you are eating meat while reading this, way to be! You support life.



Tasty.


There is another side to this though. P.E.T.A. You have probably heard of them. People for the Equal Treatment of Animals (I believe that is what it stands for, I didn't want to give them the joy of having someone Google them to find out). If P.E.T.A. had their way, the earth could be doomed. Without man's efforts to eat beef and keep the cow population down, the increased methane release could be catastrophic! For all we know, we could be gone right now. But do they care? Probably not. Just as long as the animals are O.K.. So does this mean that P.E.T.A. and environmentalists are foes? Are both groups unwittingly working against each other? I say yes. Perhaps they will come to this realization and we will get a new reality T.V. show to air back to back with Whale Wars. Just what the world needs. Though it could be pretty epic. Perhaps in the end both groups will end up destroying each other. For all we know it could bring about world peace.

All these thoughts added up to one grand summation. I should open a restaurant. I will call it P.E.T. Animals. People for the Eating of Tasty Animals. I must admit, I didn't come up with that acronym myself, my brother has it on a shirt. But still, I like it. That way P.E.T.A.'s name would become synonymous with a steak house. Or a burger joint. Or both. Either way, we will serve a LOT of beef. And the good news is that I wouldn't be legally infringing on their name. It won't be my fault if people decide it is easier to say "you want to go to to P.E.T.A.'s and get some steak?" instead of "you want to go to to P.E.T. Animals and get some steak?" Free agency. People use it.

I bet P.E.T.A. would love it. And me. I can't go wrong with this.

Anyway, none of this really matters. It's not like global warming is actually real. This is just what came to my mind while I was reading my thermo book.
