: just like we are responsible if we support mcd's by purchasing a big mac, they are responsible for the destruction of the rain forrest by supporting the livestock that is raised there.

: fyi, the biggest reason for clearing rain forrest land is to make way for cattle and livestock pasture.

: anything else?

There aren't that many suppliers ou there that can supply the quantity of meat that McDonalds needs. If they don't have a choice, they don't have a choice. Also, if all companies used meat that is "freindly to the enviroment", our meat would be VERY expensive.
