5 Good Reasons to go Veggie
1. According to a detailed report by the World Cancer Research fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research, vegetarians have been shown to have lower overall mortality, lower risk of heart disease, lower obesity and longer average life expectancy than the general population.
2. Eating meat exposes you to all the nasty substances in the bloodstream of intesivley farmed animals, such as antibiotics, hormones and possibly BSE.
3. Animals naturally form close bonds with each other and experience a range of emotions but on modern farms they are treated as meat products and slaughtered at a very young age.
4. Farmed animals consume vast quantities of water, beans and grains whilst people starve. Much as we have awakened to the full economic and social costs of cigarettes, we will find we can no longer subsidise or ignore the costs of mass-producing cattle, poultry, pigs, sheep and fish to feed our growing population.
5. One quarter of the earth's surface is wasted as pasture for livestock while wildlife habitats dwindle.
