Robbins tells the truth about the feedlots, but he also lies through omission.
He does not talk about regenerative farming or any of the techniques that lead to healthier soils and more food abundance.
He promotes the horrific vegetarian diet and the soil-destroying methods used by those farmers. Veganism destroys the soil, and poor soil destroys the planet.
It's been awhile since I read his stuff, and he suckered me in for awhile. However, his work is based on being an heir to the Baskin-Robbins fortune, and his guilt about it. His facts are incomplete and often wrong.
True, but technology has changed much since he wrote the book and it was a LONG time ago when I read it.
I am a vegetarian and view veganism a bit too extreme for people. As to my post that garnered 2 negatives vvv:
I have a newspaper entry from a flakey writer that tried to shame hunters for killing precious critters when they can go to a store where no animals were harmed.
My comments about new technology applies to the post about aquaponics.
My horror at lab grown meat holds just because whoever is developing it CAN alter it to do nefarious things. If Gates is involved....nuff said.
