Growing beef on grass helps with carbon sequestration, among other things.

Thanks Jan, very interesting! We continue to buy organic beef when we
entertain and you've succeeded in convincing us to continue for our
unenlightened friends. :)

We'll have to agree to disagree personally, but I respect your
informed choice.

namaste,

One of the ranchers in our cattlemans association is married to a
vegetarian. It's NBD. When we have to go to convention banquets,
he gets her prime rib and she gets his king crab legs : )

In my home, we actually eat a lot more seafood than beef, because
my SO will cave in and sell "our" beef, when a neighbor needs one for
a wedding, for Easter or some other big occasion. We go fishing all
winter long out on the bay, to catch halibut & king salmon. And buy
crab & scallops on the dock. And go clamming. A lot of our "recreation"
is actually subsistence food gathering. (Neither one of us hunts moose,
caribou or black bear anymore. We'd rather look at the animals than
kill them. But it's tempting to shoot moose when they get in the garden
and eat all the cabbage & broccali a week before harvest. There's a
moose heifer hanging around here tonight, so I put a radio out in the
garden and tuned it to a station that plays a lot of Rush Limbaugh
all night. That should scare her off. *g*)
