Al Gore has finally come clean about his thoughts on meat consumption and the environment.
“I’m not a vegetarian, but I have cut back sharply on the meat that I eat,” Gore told ABC Television from New York.
Gore had been criticized in the past for claiming to be an environmentalist, but not discussing the effects of the meat industry and global warming, especially in his narrated documentary on the environment, An Inconvenient Truth.
“It’s absolutely correct that the growing meat intensity of diets around the world is one of the issues connected to this global crisis – not only because of the CO2 involved, but also because of the water consumed in the process.”
“You could add in the health consequences as well.”
Gore advocated eating more fruits and vegetables, but is not quite ready to go vegetarian or tell anyone else to, for that matter.
“I’ve made those changes, and while I don’t go quite as far as Nick saying everybody should become a vegetarian – partly because it’s difficult enough to get the agreement without adding that on top of it – it is a legitimate point of view.”
Ah, come on, Gore.
Don’t be such a faux wiennie. Just cut the animal out of your dietary equation, okay?

Band member Shane Told recently explained to bringbacktheboombox.com how he and the other Silverstein musicians got acquainted with PETA.
“Our whole band is vegetarian. We just happen to all be vegetarians. We didn’t come together, it just happened. It wasn’t something that our band was fueled by; it was just something that we all had in common. I was talking to PETA while they were at a show and I mentioned that we were all vegetarians, they thought that was very rare. They really wanted to work with us so they contacted us. They wanted us to get involved. We don’t mind spreading the word, it’s important to have a table with some information at the shows. That’s how I learned about it originally from going to hard-core shows and seeing their table that explains about fur and vegetarianism, helping people understand it. That’s how it came about.”
Boy meets AR group. They hit it off on the first date. They agree to continue seeing each other.

Perez Hilton "Save The Seals"
Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton is one several stars posing in a PETA Save The Seals campaign.
Perez has voiced his opinions on the animal rights group before, saying although he didn’t agree with everything it stood for, he still found common ground. “I don’t support PETA—I support some of the things that PETA does. I support that they’re kind of like me, in that they’re loud and sometimes obnoxious. Underneath that, a lot of the things they do and other things I don’t agree with.”
Good to know Perez supports ending seal hunts.
“I don’t understand why they have to commit this act of brutality and barbarity,” Perez said. “It’s not necessary.”
There’s no better way to get loud and obnoxious, Perez.
BTW, Perez is looking better than ever, having slimmed down thanks to some better eating and exercise sessions.
Has this dude been stocking up on his veggies, too?
Watch the video below for more of Perez’s thoughts.
