Time is Running Out
Animal products are not a very efficient way of feeding the world. Factory farming is inherently cruel, unhealthy and negative for the environment. Global warming, exploitation of natural resources, contamination, etc. are some of the consequences of animal agriculture. With a world population of almost 7 billion people, transitioning to a plant-based diet is imperative; otherwise, much hardship is expected for the generations to come. From an increase in chronic diseases to widespread hunger, the price to pay for meat, eggs and dairy is too high. To read the article please visit Is it time we all gave up meat?
http://www.guardian.co.uk/theguardian/2011/sep/10/giving-up-meat-felicity-lawrenceDoesn't it seem un-Christian to support the dairy, egg and meat industry when undisputable evidence indicates that the animal agriculture industry is causing suffering and devastation in all of God's Creation? Is it possible that our taste buds trump our ethics and faith? I believe that we are all able to make mindful choices if we align our inner values and beliefs with our actions. Transitioning to a plant-based diet might be the best choice we can make for all of God's Creation.
