I Have To Think Of The Positive;

Going Meat-free Can Make A Huge Difference. Studies Show That Vegetarians Are, On Average, 10 To 20 Pounds Lighter Than Meat-eaters And That A Vegetarian Diet Reduces Our Risk Of Heart Disease By 40 Percent And Adds Seven Or More Years To Our Lifespan.

Since We Can't Count On The Meat, Egg, And Dairy Industries To Protect Animals From The Most Egregious Forms Of Cruelty, What Can We, As Consumers, Do? Opting Out Of Paying Someone To Allow Animals To Die In A Barn Fire Or At The Slaughterhouse Seems Pretty Reasonable.

If We Are Ever To Halt Climate Change And Conserve Land, Water And Other Resources, Not To Mention Reduce Animal Suffering, We Must Celebrate Earth Day Every Day - At Every Meal.

It Is Only Human Supremacy, Which Is As Unacceptable As Racism And Sexism, That Makes Us Afraid Of Being More Inclusive.

Today, I Marvel At The Vegan Foods In The Supermarket, At The Cruelty-free Clothing Choices In Stores, And At The Fantastic Alternatives To Dissection In Schools, The Modern Ways To Test Medicines Without Killing Rabbits And Beagles, The Many Forms Of Entertainment Involving Purely Human Performers.
