At this point it's pretty common knowledge that the amount of meat produced and consumed is harmful to our environment, yet people often act as if this is news to them, or don't address it at all. I applaud Rajendra Pachauri and Green-Blog.org for getting the word out so that eventually it may be an aspect of environmentalism that environmentalists can't just ignore.

But the question becomes, should we solve emissions problems by boycotting the manufacturers, or simply implementing new eco-friendly standards that processing plants would be forced to meet? My guess is that capitalism always trumps ecology, so until the government can get its head on straight and put better policies in place, we would do well to boycott high-emissions products.
