- Health Benefits- More fibre and les chlorestol in a vegetarian diet.
- Environmental Benefits- Excessive amounts of water are used in raising beef and other livestock. Cattle that are raised for consumption produce large amounts of methane, & methane is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. Meat eating diets indirectly contribute to deforestation.
- Ethical Reasons- Ask yourself this, "Do you really want to eat something that had to die just so you can be nourished'?
- Global Food Shortage- These massive amount of water required to raise cattle could be used elsewhere & the amount of grain grown to feed cattle could be used to feed starving nations.
'More than one-third (1/3) of the grain grown worldwide is fed to animals'- Vegan Society.
- Any animals that are exploited for any reasons should be equated to enslavement.
