The following pages detail the suffering that farmed animals endure, examine the many different ways by which animal agriculture impacts the world, and explain why it is important to take this first step towards a truly peaceful and healthy world through veganism.
The biggest problems confronting society and the rest of our planet are disease, hunger, suffering, environmental devastation, and early death. Every one of these blights has roots in animal agriculture. It is important to understand that our dietary choices have broad implications for planetary survival.
Yet, these issues are not discussed in our nation's schools or universities, and they are barely touched upon by national decision-makers. Nutrition education has been largely relinquished to the meat and dairy industries that create these problems, and we are left to consume their harmful products. Making the switch to veganism is imperative. From there, it is essential that we stay on top of new information, incorporate it into projects in class or at our jobs, and get active!
Keep in mind that there is no such thing as “humane” dairy, eggs or meat. These are deceptive marketing labels that are crafted by industries and corporations. For more information about welfare reforms and the abolitionist position click here.
By choosing to not subsidize animal products (their eggs, dairy, flesh, feathers, and skin), you are taking a vital step in eliminating exploitation and oppression at its root. Live Vegan.
