A side-effect of global warming.

We're not regressing back to something we never were.

Man basically always ate meat, even before he discovered fire.

Perhaps you should do some reading into this before going all caveman on us.

I think both global warming and factory farming are artifacts of the real problem, which is overpopulation.

Remind me again what the appendix was for again?

Dear, you're speaking of evolution, and not the climate.

So were you, whether you know it or (more likely) not.

Man has always to our knowledge been an omnivore, and that was the point of his question.

There is actually a university in Minnesota that discovered a way of producing real, kill-free, uncontaminated meat via harvesting animal cells.

It tastes the same? :>

Everyone raised valid points, but the crucial one was missing. The chief side-effect of global warming is the same as that for evolution: It makes ignorant people be wrong at the top of their lungs.
