I went vegetarian for a week while camping and hiking in Colo. with a buddy
who is vegetarian...don't know bout my Co2 emissions, but my methane
emissions went off the scale!

Not necessarily so. The fish I catch in the river behind my house causes
much less CO2 emissions than that orange or grapefruit flown on a Jumbo jet to
me from Florida. Eating locally can have a greater impact than being a
herbivore.
