An interesting piece from BusinessWeek talks about the new trend of the rich and powerful becoming vegan/vegetarian. I love the idea of Steve Wynn convincing his corporate brethren to go vegan as well.
Check it out:
""CEOs are smart. There just hadn't been enough exposure for people to glom onto this trend," says Ingrid E. Newkirk, president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. "The information is everywhere now. Instead of 'Better buy this blue chip,' it's 'Better eat vegan.' " When Newkirk learned Wynn had become a vegan, she didn't think the news was crazy. "Having dolphins in a small tank outside a casino is crazy," she says. "Ordering vegetables is not.""
