In this episode, I talk about something that’s been weighing on my mind ever since she saw the documentary Cowspiracy: Animal agriculture is the number one destructive industry for the environment. We all hear so much about the health impacts of eating meat, but rarely hear about the environmental aspects. From the clearing of rainforest land, to water usage, the increasing conversion of forests to deserts to plant the monocrops which feed animals used for food, Tony and I discuss this shocking and eye-opening information.
