I tried very hard to get these videos to load on my page but I cannot … Please click the links to watch them. You will not be disappointed. TED Talks are amazing … I always learn something new and am always inspired by them.
Thanks y’all!

haven’t watched the vids yet but will. love mark bittman and his cookbooks, though! and it’s true – one of the best ways to help the environment and “be green” is to be veg or at least to rely less on meat as a central component of our diets. thanks for the post!
Both videos just reinforced what I basically already knew but they were still good to watch! Thanks for following me on this blog!
