Grateful for the stream of studies that reinforce the point that many of us have been making for decades. If you want a livable planet, you must drastically reduce your consumption of meat. If you want to stop contributing to deliberate violence against animals, go vegan.

@_B___S Be kind. #GoVegan!

@BeschlossDC @Suntimes @librarycongress She went to the Dept of the Navy, the WH and then to the Japanese Embassy where "a small crowd of people gathered around, mainly residents of the neighborhood, and we saw some curling smoke coming from the back. They were burning their papers."

[Elissa Blake Free @ElissaBFree]

@BeschlossDC @Suntimes @librarycongress I rushed to the office and I was just about the first person there, and I was the only woman in that bureau, and the men, including the high VIPs in Washington, were all, would you believe it, at a football game.
