This book is simply mind blowing. Even though I've just taken to eating beef and pork again, after 26 years, what I've read thus far has made me completely realize there is such a thing as over doing it. And when you over do the meat eating thing, you really are contributing heavily to the downfall of our environment. This is saying nothing of course about all the corn we eat, drink, and likely wear! I heartily recommend this book for those who are interested in learning more about the real food chain in our modern world.
