Meet Your Meat

20 Aug 2007

The video at www.meat.org uses hidden cameras to show how poultry, pigs and cows are treated on factory farms... and it's not pretty. The video proposes becoming a vegetarian or vegan as the solution to the inhumane treatment of animals and the environmental problems that factory farming cause. While I agree that industrialized countries consume more meat than is healthy, I don't agree with all the statements that are made (such as, "If you drink milk then you are supporting these practices"). I believe one can still eat dairy products and the occasional meat with a clear conscience if one buys from local organic farms.
