Quantcast Vegetarian Starfactory farms and environment

“The devastation inflicted on our environment by factory farms is something we all have the power to stop by doing something as simple as ordering a veggie burger instead of a meat one.

Jason Schwartzman, who voices a new short film about the effects of factory farms and the environment, What To Eat. Schwartzman is seen below in a 30-second promo for a site where you can learn more about eating better for the environment, platetoplanet.org.

Actor Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore, Scott Pilgram vs. The World, Bored To Death) has narrated a short film on the effects of the meat industry and the environment.
