Cutting out meat consumption on one day a week can have a major impact on reducing CO2 emissions, Sir Paul McCartney has said.
In an interview with Parliament Magazine he appealed for "people power" to make the difference in the fight against global warming.

McCarthy, if and when you start calling for people to stop cutting trees and planting new one, I might consider you request!
.
Until then shut-up, you twit!

Merry Christmas!

Have you ever noticed that when a Conservative chooses to be a vegetarian he/she simply stops eating meat and when a lib chooses that lifestyle he/she wants to impose it on all others.
Paul, stay outta politics and write/sing cute songs, you know, something you're good at. And one more thing, you can lecture me on my emissions when you take your 10 tour buses and monster sound/lighting rig off the road. I can assure you that one weeks performances equal all the steaks I've eaten in my entire lifetime in terms of CO2 output which, by the way, is not (regardless of the EPA statement) a pollutant.

Paul, please let me know as soon as possible when you have this meatless day planned so I can prepare my menu for the day. It will include bacon and sausage for breakfast, a big, juicy burger for lunch, and a medium rare Kansas City strip for dinner.

meatless, processed food that may substitute meat on "meatless monday" could produce just as much CO2 if not more. you can't just propose that people alter their lives like this and not explain further.
democrats implode
Might have been just a flippant remark.
You know...oh, we could have a "don't eat meat day".
I think it's funny. There's no commitment here to believing in the global warming fraud.
liberals are destroying this nation
I destroyed my beatles records year ago with a sledgehammer . Four drug addicted over- rated nobodys

you looking for a high five or something?

Stick to your music Paul and let the sober world worry about the rest, now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go get a double cheeseburger.

paul, go play your guitar... oh i forgot, it's gently weeping. RATZ!
sister
george wrote while my guitar gently weeps. paul played the bass.

Paul is proof that marijuana is harmful.
The acid from the 60's probably didn't help him much either

What makes McCartney an expert in climatology? Somehow these so called "celebrities" think that because they have made lots of money in the entertainment field they are automatically qualified to preach to the world. McCartney needs to stick to what he does - write and sing music. Hey Paul - Catholics have had weekly meatless days and Fast/Abstinence days during the 40 day Lenten season for decades; shouldn't this have had an impact by now?

People will save a lot of CO2 by NOT going to any of your concerts too, think about it.
NonLibber
Paul, I like your music and will think of you while I am enjoying my steaks. By the way Paul, where is your proof that this will affect the so called Global Warming?
ALTACE
Hahahahahaha, thanks Paul. What a brilliant idea. Hahahahaha, sorry, I can't stop laughing.
Liberals Are Parasites
Why don't you hold your breath for a day, that might help too.
ce
Paul, it doesn't shock me at all that you would have a MEAT-FREE DAY, because you have been brainwashed by the GLOBAL Community too. We'll be having steaks today, one of our favorite foods, too bad you'll be eating oats or a block of cheese.
stopspending
How much carbon is used by your planes, trains and autos and music equipment,Paul? How often do you go to the recycle bin. Where do you dispose of your batteries? Last time I checked, you eat what you like and as much as you like, and alll the rest of us will do the same. You are not the King of the world, so just take care of Paul and we will take care of ourselves.
US Male
Good. More steak for me.
T.S.O.L.
Sir idiot.

Global warming is a hoax created by the likes of Al Gore...Some people are sooo stupid...You know who you are.....It was created for money and control.

You eat your meatless food, Paul, I will eat a big fat juicy steak. Medium rare please!!

How about all global warming Kool-Aid drinkers shut their mouths for a day. Preferably forever!
Tom from Ohio
Is he still alive?
thomasboy
Paul,please stick to writing music. Please shut up about global warming, the world knows it is now a great big fabricated lie.
Sharon
Meat = Protein = one of the 4 food groups...essential to good health.
Go ahead and chew your crud if you wish Paul but please don't try and push your views on the rest of us.
kamalanii
PAUL!!!!!!!!!! SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!
guam
Hey Paul. Maybe you should crawl back under that rock you have been hiding under. Another washed up musician that has a case of running off at the mouth.

I'm completely underwhelmed by the astuteness of the members of the entertainment community.
lucyjane
Oh, I like your response!

I'm pretty sure all that hair coloring he uses is more damaging to the environment than cows, hogs, sheep, chickens, all together.
Joey
Just sing and write Paul.
You had your chance in the 60s and now look at all the problems people from your generation has caused us with your anti-American puke.
Just sing Paul....thats what you do best.

How many years did the Roman Catholic Church have meatless Friday? What effect did that have on CO2? Probably NONE. It seems to me that if a food animal lives an extra few days or weeks it will produce more methane and CO2, not less. Therefore, we should eat more meat.
OldAncientOne
I don't care if he doesn't ever eat meat. That's his business. I resent these no it all nags trying to tell me I can't eat meat or anything else I pay for, myself.

You just go right ahead McCartney, while I'm eating my steak UMMM UMMMM UMMM

i encourage sir paul and his "folks" to have a cavity free day and start brushing your teeth, good Lord, they are awful looking
HArkansan
The more of these celebs that speak out on a crisis that doesn't exist,
the more foolish they look and the less credibility they have.
Learn 2 Swim
Paul is a little bit before my time, I like his opinions about as much as I like his music. Paul your an entertainer, that's all, so entertain us or shut up.
Dale Jeu
What would really help the environment and cut green house gases is to have one day where NO LIBERAL is allowed to breath.
tropic1
i do not understand why actors,etc are thought to be so full of wisdom.
it seems that 95 % are socialist but live as though they were royalty.
how can someone be worth billions and not feel obligated to spending at least half on some form of charity. what is good for us is not good for them.
robie
Paul, just stick to "yeah, yeah, yeah", you are not cute anymore
ba-b-boom
Maybe we should outlaw chestnuts! They easily produce more greenhouse gas in my stomach than any cow could ever produce. =0)
RushedLimbo
I know what kind of green Paul likes.
Bad Apple
Paul is entitled to his opinion. His celebrity status carries no weight on this or any other issue. Great song writer but that doesn't make him wise.
Essex Class
What an idiot!

Great Idea let's celebrate and go out for a STEAK. Mmmmm yummy.
Global Warming if a HOAX wake up.
