For your request, here's a good link.|||To save lives of animals. The less meat you eat the less animals get slaughtered. :]|||Water conservation. I forget the exact figures but comparatively, it takes quite a bit more water to produce a pound of meat than, say a pound of lettuce or apples. I remember the difference being pretty substantial.|||Here is a great website. http://vegetarian.about.com/od/vegetarianvegan101/f/environment.htm Vegetarianism actually has a great impact on the environment. Other reasons to go veggie or vegan are to benefit the animals, it helps reduce world hunger (it takes 17 pounds of grain to make one pound of meat), and is also much healthier (if you eat nutritiously.)|||United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (news): http://www.fao.org/newsroom/en/news/2006鈥?/a> Full Report: http://www.fao.org/docrep/010/a0701e/a07鈥?/a> Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livestock%2鈥?/a>|||Without doing research, I'm going to say it doesn't. Even though you're buying and eating your way out of a part of a corrupt system and not supporting animal cruelty, you still need land for food. It's like biofuel.

So they get pushed out of their natural habitat. Not to mention, trees get cut down. What happens when we cut down trees that used to suck up carbon monoxide? Eventually, global warming. (could take over 100 years...) I personally believe that humanity's existence is bad for the environment. There are things we can do to try to help and slow down the imminent destruction of our planet, but for the most part, the longer we exist, and the more our population grows, the worse off the earth is.|||it doesn't
