The European Parliament will host a major event on global warming and food policy December 3. The Chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri, and environmentalist Sir Paul McCartney will press lawmakers and experts to focus on what individuals can do to fight against climate change, such as eating less meat.

A vegetarian lifestyle will help with the global warming problem, according to Paul McCartney, who says that “Livestock farming is one of the biggest destroyers of the planet … When you see the Amazon being cut down for hamburger cattle, that’s pretty obvious.” So he wants us to all go veggie, which I think is a great idea, although at the moment the thought of giving up chicken wings for good is enough to send me into a mini-panic attack. But I think he’s right, and if we could all put aside our meat cravings, our planet would be healthier.

Paul McCartney has been using his star-power to better the earth for some time now, and I think that he’s done a lot of good.
