Christian Vegetarian Association Presents:
Take Heart!
Factory Farms Responsible for Bugs

In spite of the overwhelming evidence that the overuse of antibiotics in factory farmed animals has been a major player in increasing rate of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the sad reality is that this overuse of antibiotics is essential for industrial animal agriculture to exist. Clearly, public health is not their concern, nor the devastation of the environment. After all, animal agriculture contributes more to global warming that all transportation combined.

It’s really surprising how the meat, egg and dairy industries have been able to rely on antibiotics without much control at all and putting public health at risk. It’s obvious that it’s the consumer the one who can ultimately put an end to this practice. Without a demand for animal products factory farms would disappear. This would be great news for all of God’s Creation!
