The Hidden Cost of Your Dinner Plate
Every time you sit down to eat, you're casting a vote for the kind of world you want to live in. While many of us diligently recycle or drive fuel-efficient cars, we remain blind to the most significant environmental choice we make daily: what's on our plates. "Comfortably Unaware" shatters this comfortable ignorance by revealing how our consumption of animal products drives global environmental devastation more than any other single factor. The numbers are staggering: 70 billion land animals raised yearly and 1-2 trillion fish extracted annually for food-an enterprise consuming resources at rates that simply cannot be sustained. Unlike many environmental texts that focus solely on fossil fuels, this perspective offers something rare: a clear path forward that begins with your very next meal. The uncomfortable truth? You can't meaningfully consider yourself "green" while consuming animal products. It's like someone who smokes two packs daily but takes vitamins-addressing minor issues while ignoring the elephant in the room.
