RE: TOP 5 REASONS why eating meat is NOT a personal choice...

in #food7 years ago (edited)

"Consuming plants that have not been grown organically with a focus on nutrient density will leave you unhealthy and undernourished, welcome to the supplement scam."

Huh? I don't eat organics. My blood test results are fantastic.

"There is the fact that there are many different types of human bodies, we are not all the same, and to assume that is just wrong."

Every single human being is a biological/physiological frugivore. Compare our physiology to the rest of the animal kingdom and EVERY HUMAN BEING lines right up with frugivores.

Food is already shipped around the planet. Where do you think animal feed comes from? It is grown in various places and shipped around to other places.

You say all that, as if you care about the environment, and then say 'I practice appropriate animal husbandry' when such a model is far worse than growing crops. Meat eaters require 18x more land than vegans to produce their food. Even if we don't eat local organic, a larger vegan economy has hugely positive environmental outcomes. Have you even seen Cowspiracy and checked their sources?

And if you deny that the climate is changing, simply because some people that would also like global government are using it to push their agenda, then you really need to reconsider that. It's not about watching some ice falling into the sea, it's about seeing what is actually happening with our ocean's ecosystems. It could simply be a massive coincidence, or it could be that man is having a disastrous impact upon the planet because of how fast were are consuming its resources and outputting all sorts of gases and pollutants.

Climate change is absolutely happening. Even if climate change isnt entirely man-made, then wild animal and plant populations are still very much threatened by it. Our impact on the planet for other reasons is harming these vulnerable populations. Animal agriculture, including grazing, is the biggest cause of deforestation and desertification.

You're not gonna have your fantasy world of animal agriculture in the 21st century. The human population is over 7 billion. The majority of them would like to eat meat. There are factory farms for a reason. You think they want to pay $100+ a kilo for meat? Would it seriously kill you to eat beans instead?

TL;DR: Get your selfish head out of your selfish rear-end.
