Our Mother Earth has been under attack for far too long, being over-taxed to create ill-advised industries like animal agriculture. Raising animals as food is unsustainable. Animal agriculture is one of the leading causes of environmental pollution and destruction, and the situation will get worse as the human population increases if we do not shift our eating habits.
The time is now for humans to stop believing we can ruthlessly dominate the planet, ransack her at will, take what we want to feed our consumptive greed, and not pay a heavy price for such folly.
We have destroyed trillions of wild and farmed creatures to feed our appetite for flesh, dairy and eggs. We can shift to a plant-based way of eating, and protect all creatures, not continue to trash them.
It is time to become the thoughtful stewards of this planet we should have been all along. We can wake up, respect ourselves by admitting it is time for massive change, let go of our egos, and learn to fit in to the overall ecosystem of life.
We can eat plants and become vegan. You are invited to learn how to become vegan here.
