It is estimated that Texas County uses around 58,653,180,000 gallons a year from the Ogallala aquifer to grow 90,000 acres of corn for livestock feed. The Ogallala aquifer has an estimate of 50 years of water remaining if it continues like this, so help prevent such situations by avoiding meat. Instead of your meat casserole, eat these healthy, ethical, and delicious roasted vegetables!
