Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12

Those on an animal free diet will not obtain B12 directly from animal foods. However 1. Many people may consume an adequate amount but not be able to absorb it. 2. Eating lots of organic veggies without thoroughly washing them to clinical standards means you may get some anyway. B12 is the excretion of a bacteria. 3. And how do fruitarians cope? :lalala:

Can you stand up for
cluster bombs?

Global cluster bomb ban comes into force (1st Aug 2010) - Well sort of global. However countries like The USA, Russia, China, India, Pakistan and Israel refuse to sign.

The Convention on Cluster Munitions bans the stockpiling, use and transfer of virtually all existing cluster bombs, and also provides for the clearing up of unexploded munitions.

It has been adopted by 108 states, of which 38 have ratified it. Twenty-two out of the 28 countries in Nato, including the UK, have joined up to this ban. So who hasn't appart from the US??

The US administration insists cluster munitions are "legitimate weapons" with "clear military utility in combat".
It argues that cluster munitions actually cause less harm to civilians than some other weapons.

The charity Handicap International estimates that 98% of cluster bomb victims are civilians and nearly one-third are children." and yet the US have it that "cluster munitions actually cause less harm to civilians than some other weapons"

What are these other weapons we use??
