Animal Agriculture's Environmental Impact
When land is used to raise animals instead of crops,precious water
and soil are lost and trees are cut down for animal grazing land.
This has a devastating effect on all aspects of our
environment. Scientists list meat-eating as one of the biggest
environmental hazards facing Earth.
Animal agriculture is responsible for more greenhouse gases (GHG)
than all the world's transportation systems combined.
Together we can start working on sustainable alternatives and/or
make individual sustainable choices as a solution. The easiest
sustainable solution is reducing the demand for animal-based
products. Switching to a plant-based lifestyle is a LONG term
solution that benefits the environment, and also the animals and
our health.
