(12,655 posts)more water, more land, and creates more greenhouse gases than most other industries and is one of the biggest polluters of water and land.... that is just fact. not to mention the various flu illnesses and antibiotic resistant diseases, which usually have their roots in animal ag. add in food borne illness and human health, and you have a strong case for no longer consuming meat.
but even sticking to climate change alone, we can ignore reality, or we can accept it and start making the changes we need to make to save our earth.
people denying the reality of animal ag destruction so they can keep eating meat is no different than oil fanatics denying climate change so they can keep drilling.
it is killing the planet. we can either accept it or not, do something about it or not. to all the people telling the 1% to do their share....are we all willing to do our share as well?
