Dear Earth Lovers,
Grass fed beef is good for the planet:

Grazing is good for the earth, sustainable and uses a natural resource: the sun.

In responsibly managed grazing, grass-fed animals renew the pastures by providing natural fertilizer which stimulates growth. (Feedlots depend on corn and other grains grown with synthetic, chemical fertilizers and pesticides which make for synthetic chemical burgers and a sickly planet.) Studies show that exclusively pasture-raised animals may actually decrease greenhouse gases. Go to www.eatwild.com for more info.

In contrast to feed-lots, no oil is used in feeding grass fed cattle since no machines are required. (Feedlots use 1.2 gallons of oil per bushel of corn produced which is part of the reason the food industry is the second leading fossil fuel guzzler, after cars!)

A 12,000 sq mile dead zone has been created in the Gulf of Mexico from nitrogen run-offs from corn crops used for grain fed beef. (This is only one example of a dead zone.)

Elevated amounts of growth hormones in feedlot waste, eventually end up in the water where studies indicate that some fish are exhibiting abnormal sex characteristics. (Gross.)
See you soon!
