Ike, if you'd do some research you'd learn that Beef is the one of the most environmentally damaging substance on the planet. It takes 2000 gallons of water to create a single pound of beef, and the majority of rainforest deforestation is to support cattle ranching--not to mention the fact that it takes 10 pounds of grain to produce a single pound of beef. It's wildly inefficient. Cows also release an extremely high amount of greenhouse gases, heating the Earth and damaging the envirornment--while they suffer the entire time from disgusting overfeeding and chemical injections. The cost in gas, deforestation, water, and simply animal suffering is extraordinary. There's no way to pretend it's efficient. --- Quote from: IkeTheGeneric on August 27, 2017, 02:41:52 PM ---This is pretty much it, we can rattle our pans about whatever the forget here, but the fact remains that nothing will change. --- End quote --- --- Quote from: IkeTheGeneric on August 27, 2017, 02:44:45 PM ---If you want to make any substantial changes to the food industry, this will be your first hurdle. --- End quote --- You keep saying my work is in vain, but that's so obviously not true. The average consumer will eat around 7000 animals in their lifetime. I've cut that down (almost to zero) and done the same for around 6-10 other people (some still eat a little meat). That means that 10 vegetarians will save seventy-thousand animals. I've convinced most of these people between the ages of 14 and 24, so I obviously haven't cut their count down to zero, but perhaps to just 1/6th of what it would be otherwise. With some basic calculations, that suggests if I died today I would've prevented the deaths of sixty-thousand animals. Animals are raised as per demand. If you eat around one animal per day in terms of meat consumption (and most people will) you are saving one small creature from death every single day. If you convince other people to do the same, you multiply your impact. What if they convince someone else to do the same? You create waves of influence that will exponentially save life. To say it's meaningless is utterly ridiculous. This is a Pro-Vegan website I've sourced frequently on this exactly issue, but unless you can find anything wrong their statistics, it looks extremely well-researched: http://www.countinganimals.com/how-many-animals-does-a-vegetarian-save/ The argument of 'haha vegan I'm gonna go eat some MEAT' is really kinda laughable. It gets an eye-raise at best. Like, you're already eating meat. It's not somehow worse for you to eat it now. Do you also burn plastic in a bin or remove your cars filter because you hate eco-activists and want to show them what's-what? |

--- Quote from: Mr. Bones on August 27, 2017, 02:50:12 PM --- Why would it be killed by some form of disease? I didn't mention anything about the cow having no immune system or anything like that. Why is it okay for animals to literally eat each other alive, but not for us to simply kill them and harvest their meat? I think that's a lot more humane than a gazelle watching it's organs get torn out by a lion or some other predator. Nice stuffty ad-hominem there by the way bud, you sure you got any room to talk about peoples past? Hint: you don't. --- End quote --- you're attacking your side here and i did not see that you eere on mine. sorry. diseases can also be gotten from cuts/bruises/water. the cow wouldnt be alert of this and would simply just keep on going. |

| Mr. Bones:
I believe clearing more land for more plants to grow is a lot more costly to the environment around us. Also, you can't just grow stuff wherever you want. A lot of our world is desert where food we eat cannot grow, or other harsh environments besides desert. --- Quote from: Verification on August 27, 2017, 02:53:15 PM ---you're attacking your side here and i did not see that you eere on mine. sorry. diseases can also be gotten from cuts/bruises/water. the cow wouldnt be alert of this and would simply just keep on going. --- End quote --- A cut/bruise/water isn't a one way ticket to die-of-disease land. You know animals don't drink tapwater that is 100 percent bacteria free, right? |
