I'm going to defend Neil deGrasse Tyson here, in that I am a big fan of him!
What Neil is saying is about vegetarians is more or less being directed at vegetarians who claim they are vegetarians because they are against killing animals. He is not against vegetarians in any way, he is more or less pointing out the somewhat hypocrisy of saying killing animals to eat is wrong, but then eating vegetables is also killing a living thing.
Unfortunately, I can't find him discussing this topic without it being part of some type of comedy routine. So, I found this clip from about a year ago from the Steven Cobert show - and while its rather funny, he brings up some really interesting ways to look at and consider - ALL THINGS LIVING. And dying.
