Description

Vegan First. How Hard is That? A recent Newsweek article about climate change and the Los Angeles fires was an example of such irresponsible journalism that it even used the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), headed by a former dairy industry lobbyist, Tom Vilsack, as a source for the greenhouse gas emissions contribution of animal agriculture.
