Rise of a plant-based diet predicted by Nobel Prize winner

Found this on a different public MFP thread, an interesting article on the possible rise of a plant-based diet...
At least on this thread, I assume we can have an intelligent conversation about the article without meat-eater neuroses.

A plant-based diet makes so much sense from economics, environmental, and philosophical standpoints. I think with the rise of documentaries like Blackfish and The Cove, people are starting to realize that animals are a lot more intelligent than they thought and it will only be a matter of time before that perception of intelligence extends to farm animals. Plus environmentally, eating meat is just disastrous compared to eating plants, and our planet needs all the environmental help it can get.
