Vegetarianism

The use of meat products is both justifiable and extremely argued against. It’s been justified by religious beliefs, health reasons, and just plainly that people like the way that meat taste. However, it has also been shot down by the reasons of animal cruelty, the taking of an animal’s life, and to promote sustainability. The cost of life and the rates of animals cruelty among farms is undeniable and is a growing concern among consumers and non-consumers alike. However, I believe that people…

This paper will argue the from a cultural materialism perspective why deer is an acceptable meat to consume. Marvin Harris argues, in his book Good to Eat: Riddles of Food and Culture, that the protein composition of meat makes it an ideal food for human consumption because when eaten with plant proteins it allows us to extracted and use the proper amounts of proteins and vitamins to maintain healthy bodies (1985). Harris goes on to say this is why we have “meat hunger” or why we crave meat…

The idea that eating meat is a controversial topic for people. Some people think that there is nothing against it but others feel that it is something that should be completely avoided. Something that a lot of people from both sides agree on is that the meat industry is not what it should be and that there are a lot of things that need fixed. This is something that a lot of Ethicists agree on and even Kant for example can even have it looked at in several different ways with his different ideas.…

A vegan diet is the best possible diet because it contributes to the prevention of diseases, makes the body feel more alive, and is less harmful to the environment. Having a vegan or vegetarian diet will decrease the chances of dying from heart disease because there is no unhealthy fat that can build up and clog up the arteries. Clogged arteries lead to heart attacks or strokes. A person living a vegan lifestyle can decrease the chances of getting type two diabetes. Since vegans tend to have…

Many people think eating meat is wrong, but people should eat meat. People should eat meat because eating meat is a way of life. Since the beginning of time, our species would eat meat for nutrients. The world we live in has a recent trend of eating plants that produce the same sort of nutrients that meat normally provides. One of the reasons people choose to become vegetarians is the notion that people expose animals to “enslavement or exploitation…” (Pollan 108). The vegetarian lifestyle, in…

Over the last few years I have come upon many different studies and documentaries revolving around the cruelty to animals, which had made me begun to explore the option of living a more animal friendly life. In 2009 when I was around 15 I first heard about the concept of living a vegetarian diet as a means of being animal friendly, of course as a 15 year old my will power was not very strong and I caved and began to start consuming meat again. I did however convince my parents to get a few…

The chances of earth’s environment declining will only increase if humanity continues its meat eating habits, due to the global effects that raising livestock cause to the climate. It has recently been made known to the public on a larger scale, that one of the greatest factors to the ozone layer being damaged is from raising livestock. It is up to us to fix this issue before it makes the world an unlivable place. We have to do this now instead of later. Recently, a group of environmentalists…

As much as the world has been in a relapsed denial, we are entering a time where the matter of opinion is held high above all of our heads and the thin string that is keeping it there is being stretched by the amount of people that feel obligated to reprimand on behalf of their opinions. On one end, this seems like an overly complex way for someone to negotiate the bitter truth that everyone is going to battle their rights to agree or disagree with a bigger picture. What is lost is our ability…

Chloe Lee ESUM Mr. Woodruff 2014 September 3 Imagine if the earth is a dining table of 10, 1 would be dying of starvation, 2 would have obesity. Half of the people would have a diet close to a vegetarian. However, they are decreasing. Strict vegetarians and Vegans would occupy a place at the table, but would have barely. The tortured flesh of the animals are becoming humans’ own flesh. Society should embrace a vegan lifestyle because it has great benefits. A vegan lifestyle is ethical,…
