A Conversation You Should Hear

e you haven't heard of Jonathan Safran Froer or his latest book, Eating Animals, take a look at this clip of his most recent appearance on the Ellen show.
When I first read his book about six months ago, I wasn't yet a vegetarian. I was still considering it and gathering information for myself in order to make a conscious decision about whether it was the right thing for me.
Needless to say, his book is very compelling. I love that it is written in a very balanced, non-judgmental way; just as he is in this discussion with Ellen.
As fellow earthlings we have a responsibility to at least hear the facts as we continue to become conscious about all aspects of our lives.
There are some extremely important issues here -- aside from whether you think eating animals is "right." Issues that affect our health and our environment, our children and our families.
So if your Funky Monkey is up in arms and defending your position before you've even clicked play.... close your eyes take a deep breath and choose to be open to getting the information.

Let me know what you think. Is this compelling information to you? Have you read the book? Will you?
