Factory farming is an evil that must be removed from earth.  Stop the demand for meat and go vegatarian. Even better go vegan!

Stop killing our Animals - Find Another Way!

Target:
UK Farming Minister; Jim Fitzpatrick.
Sponsored by: 

Fantastic news - at last a compassionate Farming Minister - Vegetarian Jim Fitzpatrick (appointed in June 2009) will report to Environment Secretary Hilary Benn, who does not eat meat either here in the UK. 

Meat production accounts for 18 per cent of annual greenhouse gas emissions, outstripping transportation at 14 per cent. Millions of acres of rain forest are cleared for cattle and to grow animal feed each year, which accelerates climate change. The methane emitted from animals is 23 times worse for the atmosphere than carbon dioxide.  

We want Mr Fitzpatrick to embrace some of the less destructive, modern, cleaner, organic and fair trade farming methods being developed around the world. These advanced methods are kinder to the environment, Eco-systems, health and future of our planet and prohibit the killing of animals. Please sign this petition and tell our Minister to introduce new caring farming principals and methods. 

Thanks for your support.  (Check out "Devour the Earth" Sir Paul McCartney, The Beatles, on YouTube. 20 Min's about the detrimental, meat-based diet.)

убийство животных это нарушение законов Бога! Животные имеют такое же право на жизнь как и мы. Бог дал им жизнь, Ему ею и распоряжаться. Тот же кто берет на себя ответственность, убивая животных встает в положение Бога, а потому является богохульником. Бог НЕ принимает молитвы тех, у кого руки в крови!

Stop this madness. This atrocity is inexcusable and cruel. We only get one earth and we need to respect all the cycles it takes to keep us well and alive.

As a vegan I'm totally against any meat eating, be it from Factory Farms or 'Free Range' farms. Both practise murder, one claiming humane murder. Murder is murder - period. Respect for life begins with respect for those who are defenseless. In this instance the animals of this world. As long as we eat meat, there will be war and abuse. If we cannot respect the least of us, how do we think we can build the character to respect the greatest of us?
