The Vegan Lifestyle: Why It’s Healthier Not To Eat Animals

How Veganism Affects The Environment

Factory farming is terrible for the environment. It adds to water and air pollution, as well as deforestation. Animals that are factory-farmed, create more than a million tons of manure on a daily basis, which can contaminate water, and they emit harmful gasses every day which is really bad for the environment. There is an imbalance with greenhouse gas caused by all of this, affecting forests and plants.

Manure can be great for the soil – but not when it comes from the manure of factory farmed animals whose feces contain a lot of added hormones and additives. The plants that grow from this soil are not healthy for human consumption. One also has to look at all businesses involved in the production of meat products, from factory farms to slaughterhouses and butcher shops. They use an enormous amount of energy from fossil fuels, which, in turn, harms the environment. The more the world turns to veganism and less demand is created for animal products, the less factory farms will be created, or even carry on. A whole world of new recipes awaits you!
