I was reading an article in a popular Car Magazine the other day (I won’t mention the name) in which one of it’s contributing editors was expounding the virtues of vegan-ism. Basically, she was saying that if we ‘all’ quit eating meat entirely, we would eliminate more greenhouse gasses from the environment (methane and carbon dioxide mainly, from the raising of cattle, pigs, and chickens) than all of the cars and trucks on the road contribute.
Don’t get me wrong, everybody is entitled to their own beliefs and to expound the virtues of those beliefs, it is a free country after all. But then a thought occurred to me, right after thinking about how much I would miss steak, hamburgers and fried chicken. Where would we get our leather? Animal hides from the cattle industry account for over 80% of the leather used for motorcycle jackets, and other motorcycle leather and accessories.
Sorry vegans, I love my leather jacket too much to give up my steak, wink.
