The high cost of animal protein * energy

According to a 2002 study by David and Marcia Pimentel, researchers at Cornell University, it takes 20 times more energy to produce the protein in beef than it takes to produce a similar amount of protein from plants. In other words, we consume 95 percent less energy every time we choose to get our protein from plants instead of beef.

Go green! Eat plant protein!
