Stop stuffing your face for a minute and read this...

It doesn't matter what you support. Somehow, whatever it is that you feel strongly about, reducing your meat consumption will support that. If you care about climate change, the agricultural industry contributes more harmfully to climate change than every mode of transportation combined. If you care about animal welfare, take a look at how this industry treats animals. If you care about poverty, consider what western meat consumption is doing to third world economies every time you pay $1 for your fast food burger. If you care about the depleting rain forests, think about how much of the Amazon is destroyed every year to make more room for cattle.

I'm not asking anyone to stop eating meat all together. Just stop eating so much of it. And stop supporting an industry that is so full of greed that it has lost any sense of humanity.
