Hot Fuzz, Lent

[pozorvlak]

Hot Fuzz is the best thing the Spaced team have done yet. Far better, IMHBCO, than the frankly disappointing Shaun of the Dead. Go see. Stand not upon the order of your going, but go at once

Meat

You could try giving up meat, around 20% of greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to livestock rearing and feed production.

What, you think I'm not being ambitious enough already? :-)

The meat idea had occurred to me already (see my response to mrkgnao, above), but struck me as overambitious, and less personally urgent than the caffeine, which is getting a bit out of control. And I don't eat that much meat anyway - I don't think I ate any yesterday, for instance. Hmmm. Maybe I'll eat the stuff I've got in at the moment, and then not buy any more. We'll see.

A halfway house of course, is to eat only happy meat. I know several people who aren't vegetarian on the grounds that if everyone was, most farm animals would be extinct, and they like farm animals - but who do refuse to eat meat that has been treated poorly. Often this means doing slightly non-trivial research into the farms the meat comes from, since many official definitions like "Free Range" are apparently loopholeable...

Damn. I can't see Hot Fuzz till next week. *waits on tenterhooks*

I give up Lent for Lent every year. Or not, seeing as I'm not Christian.

dynix and I have a pact: every year, she gives up drinking for Lent, and I give up smoking for Ramadan :-)
