80 Or More Times The Energy In A Lb of Animal Flesh Vs Fruit
Animals are given veterinary care, branded, castrated, ear tagged, given shots, fed, their barns cleaned. Their food is picked up or delivered. They are monitored in the fields. When they are due to be murdered, they are often goaded by cowboys to feedlots. They are transported to abbatoirs, then butchered and subdivided or as an Ohio Health Department employee said,
they are disassembled (as if they were toys).. Their flesh is frozen in truck, warehouse, grocery store, at home. Then cooked. Compare that time and energy to an apple tree. Whether from seed
in ground or sapling, it grows automatically in the sun rain and soil. When ready the fruit is plucked and transported. No cooking required. Meat deforests while fruit reforests.
