I read that in an article somewhere. It was mentioned as an aside but a quick search should produce something. I should explain that its not the amount of food that solely increases the footprint. It is everything that comes with higher intake. Growth, harvest, production, transportation, etc. All these combined are what is said to cause it to become moot.

Secondly, I never said I believed in the statistic. I was merely mentioning it as a bit of information I had come across. Not throwing my opinion for or against, just relaying it so one can make their own decision.

Third, once again, I dont say it because I believe it. I say it because it is fun to burst a person's bubble after hearing something for the umpteenth time. "Look at this guy, he is all for the green movement." "Well some studies say it is all moot." "Oh, guess he isnt." Thats all its about, just a bit of fun. Something more fun to say than, "Yeah I do it because it keeps me healthy." et al.

I like BF but I get tired at how seriously some people take things here. Arguments are started over the smallest things and comments are taken out of context. I suppose I should start drawing pictures with all my posts that way my ideas are COMPLETELY conveyed. Or include an annotation at the bottom*

I do believe I have found my signature.
