    A watershed or a footnote?
    Mark Bittman is certainly not the first author to speak out against the environmental cost of animal based food (check the bibliography of this book for a sampling).

    Dietless

    Caution: This book might make you a vegetarian
    Happily I started reading this book while eating a salad in a restaurant. Bittman gives horrifying details on factory farming.
