    My husband and I wanted desperately the instant transformation from typical consumers to eco-conscious people．We switched our light bulbs to CFL(compact fluorescent light)bulbs to conserve energy．We went about the house turning off lights and unplugging appliances that weren’t in use．But the rate of global warming exceeded our snail’s pace conversion to greenhood．So I pressed onward．

I decided to put veganism(素食主义)at the top of our agenda．Vegans refuse any animal flesh or commercial goods made from any animal byproducts such as milk or fats．All the family applauded this option except for my husband．Some kind of animal needed to sacrifice its dear life for his meal or it wash’t dinner．I cooked up a storm，struggling to prepare nutritious meals dominated by not-so-obvious vegan dishes like bean burritos and high-fiber vegetable stir-fry．It took a few days before he realized that he hadn’t been eating any meat．

“I feel like eating beef．”he announced．So that night，I took full advantage of a zucchini (一种南瓜)，cut it into chunky(粗大的)pieces and cooked them．Then I covered them with spices．My beef-starved husband had some and a curious look crossed his face．

“Where’s the beef?”

“Living peacefully somewhere on an open plain where it belongs．”

“I knew it”he murmured．“You’ve surely made great contributions to the boom in cattle.”His taste buds were developed completely around the flavor of every kind of animal：cattle，pigs，deer，lamb，chickens and ducks．Converting him was like feeding grass to a lion．

I’m all for preserving our planet，but what good would it do to save the earth for tomorrow’s generation if today’s died of starvation? The next day，we went out for burgers．I was very careful to place the paper bag into our recycling bin．
