Any Vegetarians/Vegans here?

[James2014]

You see, that is where you fail with your "natural vegetarian/ vegan diet" you HAVE to take dietary supplements derived form animals in-part, and fungi to live on you food to be healthy where omnivores do not have to support this pseudo-health industry just to live.

Sure supplements in the form of B12 and group iron and minerals are needed when illness strikes but it appears that you need these medications continually just to make it through the day which is why your "lifestyle" is unattractive to omnivores.

There are no animal products in vegan vitamin supplements (including B12, D3, iron, and even omega 3). Since you don't take vitamin supplements you "have" to eat meat just to make it through the day, does this make eating meat wrong too? All this is irrelevant, supplements are just part of vegans diet, just as meat is part of an omnivores diet. What matters for health is evidence, and the evidence show vegans are healthier

I can think of at least two problems with this:
1) Tibet is dirt poor. What industry do they have that they can barter fairly for grain/plant-foods?
2) Transportation from anywhere outside Tibet TO Tibet is going to be OMG expensive. It is also going to create such an ungodly amount of pollution in burnt fuel, that any environment-minded vegetarian would probably cringe.

Manufacturing, tourism, services would all have to be well developed. They are also up high with long hours of daylight, so you would have increased efficiency of solar energy collection. Yes they are very poor, but we have an obligation to support development. As for transportation, this would require investment in infrastructure, but using efficient sources of transportation like rail would reduce the environmental impacts.
