This evening my husband and I went to a free screening of a new movie called A Delicate Balance. The film's director, Aaron Scheibner, was there to discuss the film and answer questions, making it a very worthwhile venture.
Aaron, a native of Australia, became concerned with the ongoing drought in his country and decided to investigate the causes of climate change. As he pursued that topic, he discovered that the consumption of meat can be blamed for more than just clogged arteries. The film has lots of interviews with medical doctors, references to studies, and real scientific evidence that all make a convincing case for vegetarianism...not just for our health, but for the planet. It was very powerful and beautifully done with lots of information to convince the hardest skeptic that vegetarianism might be more than just a good idea.
By the time we returned home last night, my husband announced that he was ready to move towards becoming a vegetarian! The movie made a difference for him. I highly recommend it for the carnivore in your family!
Today I ate:
- Breakfast: Muesli with almonds, walnuts, sunflower and chia seeds, dried apricots and raisins, a banana, an apple and almond milk.
- Lunch: Lettuce wraps with romaine, avocado, cucumber, tomato, onion, dulse and sprouts.
- Supper: Green smoothie with strawberries, banana, watercress and spinach.
