“The way that we breed animals for food is a threat to the planet. It pollutes our environment while consuming huge amounts of water, grain, petroleum, pesticides and drugs. The results are disastrous.”-David Brubaker, PhD, Center for a Livable Future, Johns Hopkins University Environmental News Network
"Antibiotics in farm animals leave behind drug-resistant microbes in meat and milk. With every burger and shake consumed, super-microbes settle in the stomach where they transfer drug resistance bacteria into the body, making one more vulnerable to previously treatable conditions".
“A single dairy cow produces about 120 lbs of wet manure per day, which is equivalent to the waste produced by 20–40 people. That means 1.4 million dairy cows produce as much waste as 28–56 million people.”-U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
"But for the sake of some little mouthful of flesh, we deprive a soul of the sun and light and of that proportion of life and time they had been born into this world to enjoy." ~Plutarch
