Why should you become vegan? Here’s why:
1. It helps the environment- meat packing plants produce more carbon emissions alone than any vehicle does. Beef factories also cause water pollution.
2. It’s good for you- being vegan can actually reverse heart disease and colon cancer. Why? Red meat causes colon cancer because it takes so long for your stomach to digest, and it actually sits in your intestines for a really long time, which is unhealthy. The plague and fats in red meat are the number one cause of heart disease.
3. It’s compassionate- by becoming vegan you are helping millions and millions of animals live every single day. Billions of animals lose their lives every single day, just so meat-eaters can have something tasty.
I think one of the main reasons that meat-eaters are meat-eaters is because they don’t know how much harm they’re causing by eating meat. To be honest, I didn’t know about any of this stuff until recently. I knew that an animal died for my tastebuds, and always felt bad about it when I ate meat. However, I did not know how bad it was for my body and the enviornment. Most people do not know all of these vital statistics. That’s why us vegans are spreading the word about it, compassionately.
