Cory Booker: This Planet Simply Cant Sustain People Eating Meat
Democrat 2020 hopeful is vegan because eating eggs 'didn't align with my spirit'

Sen. Cory Booker (D., N.J.) said the planet "can't sustain" people eating meat, as the 2020 hopeful aims to become the first vegan president.
Booker told the vegan magazine VegNews earlier this month that he became vegan after coming to the realization that eating eggs "didn't align with my spirit."
While claiming he does not want to lecture Americans on their diets, Booker says Americans need to be nudged into fake cheese because the planet cannot sustain the "environmental impact" of the food industry.
"You see the planet earth moving towards what is the Standard American Diet," Booker said. "We've seen this massive increase in consumption of meat produced by the industrial animal agriculture industry."
"The tragic reality is this planet simply can't sustain billions of people consuming industrially produced animal agriculture because of environmental impact," he said. "It's just not possible."
Booker says the "devastating impact" of greenhouse gases produced by the meat industry is "just not practical."
"The numbers just don't add up," he said. "We will destroy our planet unless we start figuring out a better way forward when it comes to our climate change and our environment."
Booker, who said his vegan "journey" began in 1992 when he became a vegetarian after reading Gandhi's biography, wants to make the "existing model" of the food industry "obsolete."

Ever notice that companies making vegan foods from soybeans try to make them taste like MEAT?

Booker is such a joke
Booker is such a joke
Is this a euphemism from Cory?
Decipher the code. It's a confession.
Screw these kooks.
If he has increased his legume intake, then he truly is Farticus...
Corey likes the bone.
Given Bookers reputation he should be more careful with his words.
Cory needs to ponder this deep philosophical question:
If the Good Lord hadn’t intended for us to eat animals, then why did He make them out of meat?
Bingo
This Planet Simply Cant Sustain People like Cory Booker.
There. Fixed it.
The democrats are dunces as well as frauds and fanatics. He says it’s “not possible” to continue feeding billions of people with “industrial” meat. But quite obviously it IS POSSIBLE.
Cory eats meat in bathrooms....
