Hunt Deer, Save the Planet

Just watched a t.v. episode on going green and the many things we can do to save the planet. They suggested that we purchase electric cars, unplug all appliances before leaving the house, turn off all your lights when not in use, and planet your own vegetables. I think some of the things are a little extreme such unplugging "all" the appliances in your house when not in use, but some of the things they said are just common sense. However, I think that hunting your own food can also save the planet. Think about it. If I drive to the store (in my non-electric car) and buy a pound of beef (which was packaged by a machine which is always plugged in and uses plastic which is NOT biodegradable), fry up the meat on my stove (which again is always plugged) and then freeze that meat (again, my freezer is always plugged in) for one year, I am pretty sure I will make the hole in the ozone a mile bigger.
However, if I were to go out and shoot a Deer with a shot gun using one bullet (which is reloadable) and clean the Deer myself using a knife and my muscles and chunk up the meat and use a hand grinder to make venison burger out of that meat and then wrap it in paper and freeze it, I think I just might save a whole lot of ozone. (Wow, that was one big run-on-sentence)
Hunting is not only helping us to save the planet it is also helping us to consume our lands natural resources so that we do not continue to destroy the environment, but rather help it thrive.
So the next time some talks your ear off about how hunting is wrong, just tell them the long run-on-sentence that I just told you. Even if they don't agree with you the sentence is so long that they will zone out and not even know what you just said.
Hunt Deer, Save the Planet!!
