Treehugger’s Graham Hill Weekday Vegetarian TED Speech
Written by Vegetarian Star on May 19th, 2010 in Flexitarian, Food & Drink, Videos.
In February of this year, Treehugger founder Graham Hill presented his idea for reducing your carbon footprint without giving up meat entirely, his Weekday Vegetarian Plan.
The green living website has now posted Hill’s speech from the 2010 TED conference.
Upset with the fact his lifestyle had more of an impact on the planet than the transportation industry, Hill wasn’t quite ready to go cold turkey (pun intended) and quit eating meat.
“Imagine your last hamburger,” he jokingly told the audience.
By eating vegetarian Monday through Friday and allowing himself to have meat on the weekends, Hill was able to ease his conscience without having his taste buds go through withdrawal.
