Our entire globe is being taken over by cattle farming. This means less public space, less room for wildlife and increasingly overcrowded cities. A meat-based diet takes up four times as much space as a vegetarian diet. Producing vegetarian food makes a more efficient use of available land and resources. Meat - a waste of space.
Vegetarianism is the future of food.
There are approximately 4 million vegetarians in the UK today, in 1945 the figure stood at 100,000. At the present rate of growth we will all be vegetarian by the year 2030. Eating meat causes pain and suffering. A great reason to be a vegetarian is that it is a step towards ending the painful slaughter of animals. If we all turned vegetarian the countryside would be a more interesting place.
