if someone takes the pledge and the tree is planted but then falters and eats meat anyway... does PETA go and cut the tree down? There has to be some kind of punishment involved or else cheating becomes too easy.
LOL!!! Hmmmm.... how about making the offender go and plant new trees, and tend them in a Third World country? Might do some good for some slacker to get out of his cubicle and do some real physical labour like most of our fellow human beings... >;D
I must now apologize to my fellow carnivores, as my resolve is slipping, and I may very well take this pledge.... confounded Heifer.org... got me thinking about sustainability and all that again.... went and contributed to give some families chicks, goslings, and honey bees....
Hey, PETA, can I still eat an egg every now and again during this pledge, or is it strictly vegan?

30 days vegetarian? Welll... as much as I love my fish and chicken (to say nothing of my wife's superlative pork chops and beef stew!!).... it might do me a world of good.....
Must ponder this....

It's a really strange odd to join in any PETA campaign, because I had big differences with them. But there's a saying about "politics having strange bedfellows." Perhaps "Saving the Planet makes strange bedfellows" could be true too. I can do this challenge!
I didn't see anything about "vegan" as earlier blogger mentioned. It's a Vegetarian pledge.
PETA's heart is definitely in the right place, but their support for veganism is wrong. Weston A Price Foundation.
Are you joking? It's ok to eat meat, but to be vacuous and eat meat is just wrong.
I just went to the Weston A. Price Foundation website. If that isn't a front for the meat and dairy lobby I don't know what is. Countless books have been written documenting and detailing the health benefits of a vegetarian/vegan diet. It's not only better for your health but better for the environment and certainly a more compassionate way of eating with regards to "food" animals. Check out Dr. Fuhrman's Eat to Live, Dr. Cambell's The China Study, or any book by Dr. Bernard.
30 days? I'd miss my chicken too much....
