I like the blog and the whole concept, but this was a shock for me a bit – I do not see any respect and any link to getting green in cutting dead animal´s body like it was some ..baking a cake…

PS: I don´t want to be unpleasant or something similar, I just felt the need to express my thoughts.

Just came across your blog and am perusing your entries.

I’d really like to throw in my two cents if you don’t mind….

I just don’t see how you can go for a step-a-day towards “going green” and still promote eating meat. Organically raised, grass-fed – it doesn’t change the fact that you’re choosing a very “green UNfriendly” diet. I don’t want to be one of those folks who spreads the guilt, but unless you have a condition that prevents you from giving up meat, it’s just as much a wasteful nicety as driving a car that guzzles gas. I just don’t see the justification and it really takes away from the poignancy of your efforts. In your first post about taking your meat class, you toss the factors of wasted water and grain aside without a second thought. I would really like to hear how you justify that…

Not to attack you personally but if your goal is to live a greener life and promote it to your readers, this particular step seems more detrimental than helpful.

I try not to be one that tells others how to live their lives…I’m just commenting on your mission of living green.

Other than that, your blog is entertaining and filled with great tips for people to follow. Keep it up and good luck.
