Most, if not all these problems could be turned against themselves and turned
into solutions, if only people would think. For example, pig waste can be used
to produce massive amounts of free methane (and is being used to do so in other
countries). Simply blaming the fact that man was designed as carnivores as well
as herbivores (omnivorous), is not a solution, but is part of the problem.
