    "Our daily choices about food connect us to a worldwide economic system," Lappe said in 1987. "Even an apparently small change--consciously choosing a diet that is good both for our bodies and for the earth--can lead toe a series of choices that transform our whole lives." From this perspective, vegetarianism is far more than just a flaky remnant of the '70s--it's the key to conservation, and to a sense of personal responsibility for the environment. Do we genuinely want to make a difference? The hard facts indicate the kind of impact we can make with a dietary change. And that impact is profound.…

    Auditing is the accumulation and evaluation of evidence about information to determine and report on the degree of correspondence between the information and established criteria (Arens, Elder, & Beasley, 2010). Auditing should be done by a competent, independent person. Accounting is the recording, classifying, and summarizing of economic events in a logical manner for the purpose of providing financial information for decision making (Arens, Elder, & Beasley, 2010). Many people confuse auditing with accounting because auditing is usually concerned with accounting information, and many auditors have a considerable amount of experience in the accounting profession. This confusion results from the certified public accountant title given to individuals who perform audits (Arens, Elder, & Beasley, 2010). Auditors must understand the accounting data to accumulate and interpret audit evidence…
