Humans heavily contribute to the progressive devastation of trees and green forest land we are currently facing. Humans breathe in oxygen and convert it to carbon dioxide (CO2). This increases the concentration of CO2, methane, and nitrous oxide in the air.

A huge contributing factor is the decrease in forest lands. Oxygen-producing trees and green forest lands transform or exchange CO2, methane, and nitrous oxide which help to neutralize the release of these greenhouse gases. For hundreds of years, forests and trees have been progressively destroyed and eradicated by asphalt road projects, driveways, housing projects, massive building projects, parking ramps, paved streets and highways with catastrophic consequences.

The raising and slaughter of animals for human consumption, coupled with huge amounts of gases that come from animal and human waste fecal waste, are producing massive temperature increases as progressively fewer trees and green forest vegetation exist to neutralize the deadly gases.

Humans and animals cannot breathe asphalt, cement, and particulate matter from fossil fuel-burning energy plants and automobile gas engines.

By switching to food plans with plant-based protein ingredients, humans can make a huge progressive improvement in air quality. There are foods available for humans and pets alike that do not produce toxic waste and animal sewage as a result of their production. These include plants and plant-based foods such as Impossible burgers, Beyond Meat burgers, Chic’n chunks, and Evolution Diet Cat and Dog Foods for pets.  

Non-GMO plant-based protein diets for humans also significantly reduces progressive arterial blockage disease which is the number one cause of death in the U.S. and Canada.  Arterial blockage disease (atherosclerosis) is largely due to eating slaughter animal fats—LDL cholesterol. According to current NIH & CDC research, atherosclerosis is the largest cause of death for Americans every day with heart disease, brain failure, dementias and immune system failure-related cancers. 

Reducing domesticated slaughter animal production and reversing the human overpopulation crisis are crucial ways to address root causes of global temperature increases and expanding fires that are destroying animals, humans and our habitats.
