We have to stop animal slaughter! Just by making this simple change in your diet, you could be helping tens of thousands of animals from being slaughtered for meat. Vegetarianism can do many things to help. In fact, it does everything to help. According to a study conducted in 2002, the most common reason that Americans choose not to eat meat is to improve their health. The second most popular reason is the desire to avoid the hormones and other additives in animal products - a more specific health consideration. Vegetarianism certainly has health benefits. On a balanced vegetarian diet, many people experience weight loss, high energy levels, and less risk of toxicity issues like parasites, food poisoning, and more that are associated with eating meat.

Health is not the only reason that one might choose to be vegetarian (consuming no meat, although some vegetarians will eat fish, eggs, or milk products), vegan (no animal products whatsoever), or anything in between. Many people make the choice for reasons having to do with their religious beliefs, spiritual progression, or environmental or political activism. According to a 2004 poll, 2.8% of Americans are vegetarian - for all of these reasons and more.

If you are avoiding meat for ethical reasons having to do with the treatment of animals, you might be interested to learn that many religious and spiritual traditions decry the use of animals as food. Many people experience greater mental and spiritual clarity by going on a vegetarian diet.

As for the environment, vegetarianism is seen as a solution to the destruction of rainforests (many of which are clear-cut in order to create pasture land for cattle and other meat animals) as well as world hunger. So please sign today! Thank you so much!

We the undersigned, believe in making the world a more peaceful place. Someday, man will look at animal killings as they do at man murder today. We must be the advocates of animals, since they can not speak for themselves. If we can all look out for one another, we would all be much happier, and the world would be a better place.
