Hey, not eating meat is great for any number of reasons. But, dude, get with the facts. Meat production is not the first or even the second-largest source of greenhouse gas production, even when you take into account the deforestation that meat production brings about.

Telling people that meat-eating is the largest source of greenhouse gas production just confuses people about what kinds of changes they should make and push the government to make.

Sorry — she is so full of crap… 7 years ago, Mills wasn’t even vegetarian, much less vegan — read her ridiculous books! It is very disillusioning to me that an outfit I love that is the calibre of Ecorazzi continues to buy the complete BS from this charlatan and presents her incessant lies as facts — even awards her for unproven efforts… Mills is one of the biggest liars/embellishers on the planet, for real… Simply put, she has re-routed her causes to be diets and animals because precious few of the charities that involve people want anything to do with her unless, of course, she is showing up with $$$ in hand, which is an incredibly rare occasion, indeed… She has claimed forever to have always given 80+% of her annual income(s) to charity — it was proven, undisputedly, in a court of law she holds no history whatsoever of having financially contributed to ANY charity… To listen to her, she claims she has been this incredibly successful entrepreneur in the past — if you consider selling stick-on bras and hand-made tapestries door to door as a teenager as successful entrepreneurship, then, well… She has claimed she has or is in the process of earning a degree in nutrition… The truth is, she has taken a single class in this venue, and didn’t even finish that… (P.S. Heather — one cannot obtain a college degree without having first completed primary education, which you have not…)

I feel, too, that the award she received within the past couple of weeks should have been reserved for a time in which she has been successful in anything at all… Mills holds no history whatsoever of success in her endeavors — there are no exceptions to this truth… She is currently personally subsidizing V-Bites because it is a money pit, w. few customers, that cannot stand on it’s own, her recent “fashion-line” is suitable only for Halloween costumes, at best, and we certainly haven’t seen any success with her vegan food company yet either, have we? Let’s reserve awards of merit in these arenas for those who have “proven” “successful” “track records“, shall we? Sorry, but I am very upset re. this topic…

Obviously, I am not a Heather Mills fan (an abomination to women and intelligence) and, again, without any proven successes in the manic tangents she is always and ever throwing herself into, I feel praise/awards should be withheld until something she (or anyone) does holds an actual praiseworthy outcome… There is talk (blabbing and calling attention to oneself), then there are actual results… In Mills case thus far, never the twain have met…

Hi Erin, You are entitled to your opinion, but why not reserve judgement and forget the past? There may be a lot we don’t know, and whatever funds she has certainly seem that they are being well used. To even bring in negative words and adjectives doesn’t do anybody any good. You are not defending the vegan movement, you are unnecessarily being critical of someone that is doing some very good work. Judge the woman on what she is doing, which is about a million times more than most people are. Rather let’s look at the positive, and be inspired by her wonderful works. If we do more than her, maybe we are in a position to judge. Until then, let’s be a little dignified and supportive.

Please note that the VBites Learning Cafe – is not a Restuarant. It serves
as a distribution point for the $1 Million Food Donation pledeged and given by Heather to the children of the Bronx.
