One of my favorite entrances to a room happed at a Baron De Bastrop Daughters of the Texas Revolution meeting that my son attended to receive an award. At around ten after ten, a tall, casually dressed lady breezed into the room saying “Please forgive me for being late. I didn’t finish milking my goats until a quarter of ten.” Everyone seemed to understand, and several asked about the health and welfare of her goats. I had never heard of goats as a reasonable explanation for being tardy. As it…

Veganism: A Beneficial Lifestyle To fitness fanatics and food magazines alike, veganism is currently considered the epitome of healthy living. Unlike other short-term “fad” diets, such as the werewolf and cookie diets, it has withstood the test of time. Much like anything else in our modern world, there still exist dissenting opinions on its validity. Concerns such as malnutrition are frequently addressed. However, research shows that, in the grand scheme of things, veganism is the most…

protein can produce. If this is true than that means the world would be able to be fed more efficiently by using plants as the main source of our proteins. There would be less of a need to cut down forests to increase the agriculture business, because cattle grazing land could be for planting grains and protein rich plants like peas and beans.

possums are the main carriers of the Bovine Tuberculosis disease, they can pass it on to other animals if they come in contact; this is a serious threat to our cattle and deer and many other native animals. The use of the 1080 poison can reduce the possum numbers, which decreases the chances of contact between them and our valuable animals (cattle, deer), therefore decreasing the chances of the possums spreading the Bovine Tuberculosis (TB) disease. This ultimately leads to a higher conservation…

pigs and cattle that we eventually consume. Our meat consumption is killing our plant. We are being forced to farm our land and destroy habitats in order to make room for more animals to be raised for slaughter. According to the Australian Marine Policy, over 40% of Australia's fish stocks have been deemed over fished we are now being forced to import 70% of our fish from overseas. In Queensland alone, 3000-7000 sq km of native woodland are cleared every year, largely to improve cattle pastures.…
