First, read this article about a governor's attempt to get her constituents to abstain from eating meat to lower their carbon footprint.

Then check out the PB&J Campaign, a website maintained by citizens concerned about the effect the meat industry has on climate change and the environment.

They claim (and likely rightly so) that every PB&J you eat lowers your carbon footprint because getting nutrients straight from plants means we sidestep the middle-man, or middle-digestor if you will. We need to grow many more plants to feed animals than if we just ate the plants ourselves. This article doesn't even mention the effect cow farts have on our atmosphere.

I am no vegetarian, but I support any group that endorses the gloriousness that is peanut butter.
