Vegetarian Star

“Go vegan! Or at least eat less meat and dairy. For some reason, the eco movement has been slow and a bit wary to talk about this. But it is pretty much the best thing you could do for the environment.”

—-Bones’ actress Emily Deschanel to ecostiletto.com, when asked what her favorite eco friendly tip was that readers should know about.

According to the creators of Meat the Truth, livestock greenhouse gases account for more emissions than those made by every car, train, boat, and plane we get around in.

Ah, yes. Al Gore it’s time to do your thing. Let’s not let the most inconvenient truth of all get in the way of going totally green.

Doesn’t the title make this story sound hot? Emily Deschanel screaming “Ed Begley” in the dark? It’s only in the name of being eco-friendly, though. Sorry to disappoint those looking for something more titillating.

The vegan star of Fox’s “Bones” recently did an interview with Health where she revealed environmentalist Ed Begley, Jr. played a key role in inspiring her to go green. She says his name aloud if she forgets to turn the lights off in her home. 

“If I leave a light on in my house, which I try not to do, I always say, “Ed Begley, you gotta turn it off.” If I don’t turn it off, my assistant or boyfriend will say, “Ed Begley!””

Emily has been a great proselytizer for the veg life, getting her co-star David Boreanaz to do vegetarian for one day of the week. She even got the recently removed Chairman of Fox, Peter Ligouri, to go vegan, which she considers her proudest green achievement.

“We were at a party, and I said, ‘You’d make a big difference by just trying it for a week.’ I sent him food, and he really stuck to it.”

When asked if she was an ideal eater, Deschanel replied, “Oh my god, I’m not a perfect eater by any means, and I don’t believe in starving yourself. I believe in eating healthfully and being balanced—and being balanced in your mind as well as in your body”
