________________ Meat Eating and World Starvation CHICAGO JULY 3-6, 2008 • Harvard nutritionist, Jean Mayer, estimates that reducing meat production by just 10% would release enough grain to feed 60 million people • "Much Third World grain and other food is fed to animals (to produce cheaper meat to be eaten in developed countries), not to hungry Third World people" Greater demand for meat leads to more deforestation, more water pollution, more soil degradation, and, ultimately, more hunger July 4th, 2008 Slide 9Page Navigation
