With our energy crisis looming, it is easy for Americans to blame countries like India and China for their high energy use. But researchers have realized that per capita, those countries use up far more resources than that of China or India.
Now critics from India are asking Americans to ‘go on a diet’, and they are ‘eating 50 percent more calories than the average person in India. They can assume that if Americans ate less, there would be more food for people is starving countries. The US is also the largest consumer of beef, which also seems to be the most costly to produce and process.
Seems like Americans are doing more harm than good, maybe we should go on a diet.
