Quantcast Vegetarian StarJenna Ushkowitz Green Tip VIDEO–Eat Less Meat

Some of the cast members of Glee told Mother Nature Network how they stay green.

Glee has its share of singing vegetarians, so it’s no surprise that Jenna Ushkowitz‘s tip was to “eat less meat.”

A few facts from the Natural Resources Defense Council:

  • From 1995 to 1998, 1,000 spills or pollution incidents occurred at livestock feedlots in 10 states and 200 manure-related fish kills resulted in the death of 13 million fish.
  • Ammonia, a toxic form of nitrogen released in gas form during waste disposal, can be carried more than 300 miles through the air before being dumped back onto the ground or into the water, where it causes algal blooms and fish kills.
  • Ammonia, a toxic form of nitrogen released in gas form during waste disposal, can be carried more than 300 miles through the air before being dumped back onto the ground or into the water, where it causes algal blooms and fish kills.

Yeah, factory farms and meat give you nothing good to sing about, that’s for sure.
