Yesterday, I posted a brief comment about how PETA is going after Al Gore because he eats meat which purportedly adds to global warming. My point was that global warming isn’t the issue for PETA, but eating animals is, and that the group was merely grandstanding. I forgot to mention further evidence in this regard: Ingriid Newkirk, PETA’s alpha wolf, is a NASCAR fan and driver. Don’t expect PETA’s “concern” for global warming to induce Newkirk to turn against car racing any time soon.
