according to the UN, the livestock sector is responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, around 40 percent more than the entire transport sector __ cars, trucks, planes, trains, and ships __ combined. The most current data even quantifies the role of diet: omnivores contribute seven times to the volume of greenhouse gases that vegans do.

I can't count the times that upon telling someone I am vegetarian, he or she responded by pointing out an inconsistency in my lifestyle or trying to find a flaw in an argument I never made. (I have often felt my vegetarianism matters more to such people than it does to me.)
