Stop me if you know the answer to this one, "What is the one single industry destroying the planet more than any other?"

You'll find out that the one single industry destroying the planet more than any other is not Big Oil, Coal, and Gas but ... Animal Agriculture.
And there is something we can do about it. Starting Right Now. And if we do ... we've just bought ourselves a future. Go here: cowspiracy.com -- watch all the video clips, and read everything. Find a screening, go to a theatre, or host a screening yourself. You Must See This Film.
