Vegan stuff in the news

Veganism is getting a lot of press lately, thought you guys might be interested to see a few of the articles that have been posted by the vegan pros.  This article from The Atlantic comes to us courtesy of VegNews' post on FB http://www.theatlantic.com/food/archive/2011/01/meat-sometimes-sustainable-never-okay/68524/

Also, the most recent beef recall:

PETA's recent article generated something like over 300 comments on FB:

Erik Marcus of http://www.vegan.com/ posted this article a few days ago about 1 million pigs being buried alive due to a foot & mouth outbreak, omg:
