Veggie Blog

Paul McCartney was recently interviewed by ITN News about how veganism can help saving the planet. Did you know that Paul McCartney has been a veggie for over 30 years now? He however claims that the US has now admitted cattle rearing are devastating the planet. He wants people to listen and understand. Paul McCartney’s wife is also a veggie and according to Paul, his wife managed to turn the whole family into veggies!

Paul also talks about that being a veggie is clearly better for your health and claims that if humans not start to change the way they eat there will be catastrophic for the planet. Paul’s firs thought is about the children of the future because if we continue like this it could be harmful to them.

There are several types of vegetarians, figure out what kind of vegetarian you are or if you are not vegetarian but interested to be. Here are the alternatives:

1. Vegan – this type of vegetarian is the strictest one. They will not eat any kind of meat or animals also the food which contains with animals product like eggs or cheese. They are totally 100% free from animals.

They also don’t use anything in their which have the death of the animals involves like crocodile bag, fox scarf, the experimental on animals for cosmetics and others. If all people in the world become a vegan, there will be 100% right on animals. Most of the vegan has been inspired from the love in animals and they feel that they make a sin by eating animals.
2. Fruitarian – is the group of people who eat only fruit and vegetable which are already classified as fruit and vegetable such as banana, mango, avocado and others.
3. Raw or Living Food Diet – a group of people who eat raw food without cooking. They believe that the process of cooking like fry, boil, steam and others will lessen the nutrition of the vegetable. But there is an exception for some kind of vegetables which are needed to be cooked in order to be easy to digest but mostly they eat raw.
4. Lacto Ovo Vegetarian – a group of people who don’t eat meat but eat eggs and milk.
5. Lacto Vegetarian – is almost the same with Lacto Ovo Vegetarian but they just only don’t eat eggs or any foods which contain with eggs. They drink milk also.
6. Macrobiotics – this kind of vegetarians is mostly for someone who needs to be diet. They don’t eat any meats but seafood. Most of the vegetables they eat are the vegetable which has contain no sugars and carbohydrate.

Take a look at these cute canvas shopping bags designed by Soychick, a vegan from California.

Soychick has a variety of items in-scripted with a chick in all sorts of poses and with “lots of attitude”. She has tops, bottoms, caps, aprons, tees, tanks, and the canvas bag in the picture, is perfect for grocery shopping.

One of the best ways to reduce our dependence on plastic bags, is to buy and use canvas (or similar cloth) bags, and to take these with us on our shopping trips.

• 10 oz heavyweight natural canvas fabric
• Full side and bottom gusset
• 22″ reinforced self-fabric handles
• Machine washable
• Measures 15″ x 18″ x 6″

I would say the SoyChick Canvas Bag is a healthy, and oh! so cute alternative to plastic. To learn more about green living, visit eco-blog, Keetsa.

I think it is pretty cool that DreamHost has gone green. I can’t say that i fully understand what it means to be a green host, as i am still learning about the different environmental issues, but i duly note the effort, and the progressive nature of the move. DreamHost has always been a pretty liberal and fun organization, i use to host with them for a previous site i had, and i always looked forward to their off-beat wacky newsletters. This will be filed under green living. Any comments on this?
