From the New Scientist magazine, here is a quick quiz:
'It's time for those New Year's resolutions. Which one of these will do most to help save the planet?

a) Reducing your intake of beef by 1 kilogram a month.
b) Cutting your driving by 200 kilometres a month.
c) Writing your resolutions on a sheet of paper and then recycling it.'

Answer: a.

How about giving all of our friends this little test and hope they will take the hint to go vegetarian at least? Again, all we can do is take as many little steps as each of us are able in order to slow the human impact on our earth.
